Polymeric Electrolytes for Ambient Temperature Lithium Batteries

On-Board State-of-Health Estimation at a Wide Ambient Temperature Range in Lithium-Ion Batteries

A state-of-health (SOH) estimation method for electric vehicles (EVs) is presented with three main advantages: (1) it provides joint estimation of cell’s aging states in terms of power and energy (i.e., SOHP and SOHE)—because the determination of SOHP and SOHE can be reduced to the estimation of the ohmic resistance increase and capacity loss, respectively, the ohmic resistance at nominal tempe...

The Genetic Control of Reproductive Development under High Ambient Temperature.

Ambient temperature has a large impact on reproductive development and grain yield in temperate cereals. However, little is known about the genetic control of development under different ambient temperatures. Here, we demonstrate that in barley (Hordeum vulgare), high ambient temperatures accelerate or delay reproductive development depending on the photoperiod response gene PHOTOPERIOD1 (Ppd-H...

ambient temperature and confers heat resistance on ectotherm development

Effects of temperature on biological processes are complex. Diffusion is less affected than the diverse enzymatic reactions that have distinct individual temperature profiles. Hence thermal fluctuations pose a formidable challenge to ectothermic organisms in which body temperature is largely dictated by the ambient temperature. How cells in ectotherms cope with the myriad disruptive effects of ...

Ambient temperature modulates yawning

In humans yawning can be triggered both physiologically as well as psychologically (i.e., spontaneous and contagious yawns), and it is the distinct manifestation of these 2 yawn types that has led researchers to traditionally study them independently. However, evolution produces adaptations that are constrained by and build upon existing architecture, and since contagious yawning is a derived f...
