Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy (SECM) is a powerful noninvasive analytical technique employed in a variety of applications ranging from electrochemical characterization of material surfaces, to bioanalytical characterization of single live cells [1]. When applied to live cells, SECM ... Read More
Most of the reported studies on the electrical characteristics of biological cells assume that they have simple shapes like spheres or ellipsoids due to the lack of information about their accurate 3D shape. However, the actual shape of a cell can be quite fractal and it must be taken ... Read More
Fast charging of lithium-ion batteries is critical to commercial application of electrical vehicles (EV). Recharging lithium-ion batteries using standard charging methods usually takes more than one hour which is considerably longer than refueling an internal-combustion-engine (ICE) car. ... Read More
This paper explores the performance of a microfluidic mixer that uses a sinusoidal electric field to accelerate the diffusion process between two Newtonian liquid species in an electrolytic solution. The 2D model was developed using the Microfluidics module in the COMSOL Multiphysics® ... Read More
One of the most noticeable effects in loss of performance and capacity of thermal systems is produced by altitude. This causes that the density of a compressible fluid and the atmospheric pressure are considerably reduced, causing a decrease in electrical power and thermal systems. Given ... Read More
Dedicated work in modeling, simulation and design optimization of Lithium-ion Battery (LIBs) was done in the past decades, and still, the most widely used one for electrochemical processes is the Newman model. [1] The underlying parameters are treated deterministically, but the impact of ... Read More
In the past two decades, highly porous nanostructured materials have been investigated and used for a large variety of applications, such as catalysis, energy conversion/storage, optics, sensing and more. Nanoporous gold (npAu) is one of such materials which have shown great potential as ... Read More
CO2 capture and further conversion into valuable products can be a promising solution against global warming. Normally, CO2 conversion can be achieved by chemical methods, by photocatalytic and electrocatalytic reduction [1]. Specifically for electrocatalytic reduction of CO2, challenges ... Read More
