UH engineering Professor Yan Yao discovers that lithium dendrites, a flaw in batteries, are unexpectedly strong and brittle allowing them to act like rigid needles inside batteries Their stiffness — ...

The global ambition to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 is driving intense research into low-carbon energy vectors to mitigate the climate impact of the dominant use of fossil fuels. This challenge ...

Gotion High‑Tech, supported by Volkswagen, has completed the design phase for its first 2GWh all‑solid‑state battery mass‑production line, marking a significant step towards commercial rollout. The ...

Below, co-authors Dave Evans and Bill Burnett share five key insights from their new book, How to Live a Meaningful Life: Using Design Thinking to Unlock Purpose, Joy, and Flow Every Day. Dave and ...

-The best solid surface brands for commercial applications should have high material quality, offering resistance to stains and impact for high-traffic areas. -Aesthetic options are important in ...

(a) Tetrahedral neopentyl molecules that differ only in the number of hydroxyl (–OH) groups. The –OH groups are shown in red (oxygen) and white (hydrogen). (b) Simplified phase diagram showing ...

Abstract: The widespread adoption of solid-state transformers (SSTs) in medium-voltage grids faces limitations due to system instability caused by SST/multimodal grid impedance mismatch. Existing ...

Scientists have boosted solid-state battery performance by redesigning how ions move inside the battery rather than changing the materials themselves. The discovery points to safer, cheaper batteries ...

The company claims its new battery could lead to electric cars with a real-world driving range of over 800 miles and a theoretical range of more than 930 miles. Introducing a game-changing technology ...

Abstract: [Context] Applying design principles has long been acknowledged as beneficial for understanding and maintainability in traditional software projects. These benefits may similarly hold for ...
