On The Efficiency Of Energy Storage Systems - The Influence Of The Exchanged Power And The Penalty Of The Auxiliaries

Alfred Rufer

Storage is an important domain of the energy sector, with its traditional, classical solutions for smaller and larger amounts of energy. Energy storage has become of higher importance in relation with the development of alternative energy sources, leading ...

Adhesive wear and interaction of tangentially loaded micro-contacts

Jean-François Molinari, Son-Jonathan Pham-Ba, Tobias Brink

Current engineering wear models are often based on empirical parameters rather than built upon physical considerations. Here, we look for a physical description of adhesive wear at the microscale, at which the interaction between two surfaces comes down to ...

Aqueous organic and redox-mediated redox flow batteries : A Review

Hubert Girault, Danick Reynard, Solène Cindy Gentil

Redox flow batteries (RFBs) are among the most investigated technologies for large scale energy storage applications. Since the first commercialization of all-vanadium RFB (in the early 90’s), the technology has evolved towards the development of new syste ...

Laser shock peening: A promising tool for tailoring metallic microstructures in selective laser melting

Roland Logé, Ke Huang, Nikola Kalentics, Valerio Romano, Andreas Burn, Manuel Ortega Varela De Seijas

Metallic parts made by Selective Laser Melting (SLM) are known for their heterogeneous microstructures in the as-built (AB) state. In this paper, Laser Shock Peening (ISP) was performed on a 316 L stainless steel part fabricated by SLM. The LSP treatment i ...
