Development of Ti-Zr-Mn based AB 2 type metal hydrides alloys for an 865 bar two-stage hydrogen compressor

Andreas Züttel, Noris André Gallandat, Rui Li

This study reports the development of a new Ti-Zr-Mn-based AB 2 type hydrogen storage alloys for a two-stage metal hydride hydrogen compressor (MHHC). The hydrogen storage alloys are designed to compress hydrogen from 35 to 865 bar within a temperature dif ...

Real-Time Control of an Electric Vehicle Charging Station While Tracking an Aggregated Power Setpoint

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Lorenzo Enrique Reyes Chamorro, Cong Wang, Roman Rudnik, Jagdish Prasad Achara

We consider the problem of controlling the charging of electric vehicles (EVs) connected to a single charging station that follows an aggregated power setpoint from a main controller of the local distribution grid. To cope with volatile resources such as l ...

Recent advances on sputtered films with Cu in ppm concentrations leading to an acceleration of the bacterial inactivation

Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi

This review focuses on the acceleration of the bactericidal and fungicidal effects by uniform, adhesive Cu-based nanocomposites on textile and thin polymer surfaces. The acceleration of the bacterial inactivation kinetics mediated by Cu, TiO2/Cu and ZrO2-T ...

Electron and Hole Polarons at the BiVO4-Water Interface

Alfredo Pasquarello, Julia Anna Wiktor

We determine the transition levels of electron and hole polarons at the BiVO4-water interface through thermodynamic integration within a hybrid functional scheme, thereby accounting for the liquid nature of the water component. The electron polaron is foun ...
