The wide adoption of wireless devices in the Internet of Things requires controllers that are able to operate with limited resources, such as battery life. Operating these devices robustly in an uncertain environment, while managing available resources, in ...
Poor cycling stability and low volumetric capacity of sulfur cathode prevents practical application of Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. Herein, we demonstrate a strategy to address the two drawbacks of sulfur cathode by synthesizing a compact and flexible ...
Prescribing optimal operation based on the condition of the system, and thereby potentially prolonging its remaining useful lifetime, has tremendous potential in terms of actively managing the availability, maintenance, and costs of complex systems. Reinfo ...
Aqueous zinc metal batteries with mild acidic electrolytes are considered promising candidates for large-scale energy storage. However, the Zn anode suffers from severe Zn dendrite growth and side reactions due to the unstable interfacial pH and the absenc ...
Sodium-metal chloride batteries are considered a sustainable and safe alternative to lithium-ion batteries for large-scale stationary electricity storage, but exhibit disadvantages in rate capability. Several studies identify metal-ion migration through th ...
Modern UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) suffer from restrictions in flight range and time due to battery capacity limitations. One way to overcome these limitations is to harvest energy from overhead power lines. A growing body of scientific literature has ...
Lithium-ion batteries with enhanced rate performance are of crucial importance for practical applications. Extensive studies on the structural design and surface modification of electrode materials with the aim of improving the rate performance have been r ...
Titanium dioxide of bronze phase (TiO2(B)) has attracted considerable attention as a promising alternative lithium/sodium-ion battery anode due to its excellent operation safety, good reversible capacity, and environmental friendliness. However, several in ...
Remote health monitoring has attracted a lot of attention over the past decades to provide the opportunity for early detection of pathological health conditions. This early detection improves the quality of life for the patients and significantly reduces t ...
A fundamental understanding of the nucleation and growth behaviors of Zn metal anodes over a wide range of temperatures is of great value for suppressing Zn dendrite growth. However, work focused on the early nucleation and growth behavior of Zn metal at v ...
