Summary: The study presents a thermodynamically-consistent electro-chemo-mechanical gradient theory that couples electrochemical reactions with mechanical deformation and damage in solids. The framework models species transport and electrochemical reactions within the solid host, with electrodeposition impacting mechanical deformation and stress generation, and vice versa. The theory specializes in simulating Li-metal filament growth phenomena in a Li-metal-Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) system, capturing both intergranular and transgranular crack and Li-filament growth mechanisms observed experimentally. The theory has broad engineering applications where electrochemical reactions occur within damage zones, leading to deposition of new material at these locations.

Summary: The operating temperature of the battery has a significant impact on the performance, reliability, and safety of electric vehicles. A 3D Eulerian model is used to study the battery's thermal behavior under different coolant flow directions. The results show that the coolant flow direction and thermophysical properties have a significant effect on the maximum operating temperature and temperature gradient of the battery. The proposed battery nanofluid cooling pack can optimize the thermal management system of electric vehicle packs.

Summary: A high surface area Li metal anode with ZnO nanorod-decorated Ni foam scaffold was created, achieving a 10x improvement in rate capability compared to traditional designs. The ZnO nanorods enhance Li metal wettability and promote uniform Li nucleation, enabling the RFB to be operated with a prelithiated or Li-less discharged anode. The use of redox mediators allows for the oxidation and reduction of solid S particles, demonstrating a respectable energy density of 20.3 Wh L-1.

Summary: The development of a bifunctional electrode with photoactivity and lithium storage properties is crucial for efficient solar energy conversion and storage. In this study, a Ni foam supported Ni3S2 nanosheets covered CdS photocatalyst, known as a core-shell heterojunction nanorods array (Ni/ CdS@Ni3S2), is used as a photoelectrode for photo-assisted lithium-ion batteries. The assembled batteries can be charged off-grid by solar light and on-grid through photo-assisted charged/discharged. The overall solar-to-electrical energy conversion efficiency reaches 0.11% without external bias voltage, and it increases to 3.5% and 2.1% during photo-assisted charging and discharging processes, respectively, compared to conventional electric energy batteries.

Summary: To reduce carbon emissions, the use of renewable energy sources, particularly wind power generators, is increasing. This study proposes a frequency regulation support strategy using a wind power generator and lithium-ion battery, assigning different roles to each. The strategy achieves higher frequency support by releasing more stored energy from the generator and battery during synchronous generator trips.
