End of Electric Vehicle Batteries: Reuse vs. Recycle

In-Vehicle Testing and Computer Modeling of Electric Vehicle Batteries

A combined simulation and testing approach has been developed to evaluate battery packs in real driving conditions as opposed to purely experimental testing. The new approach is costeffective, greatly accelerates battery development cycle, and enables innovative battery design and optimization. Several fundamental models for valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA), nickel-metal hydride (NiMH), and Li-...

Electric Vehicle Lithium Ion Batteries Thermal Management

The lithium ion batteries, thanks to their high densities and high power, became promotes element for hybrid-electric and plug-in electric vehicles. Thermal management of lithium ion battery is important for many reasons, including thermal runaway, performance and maintains a constant temperature during the operating, security, lifecycle. However, in a battery pack, the batteries are stacked ag...

Evolutionary Genetics: Reuse, Recycle, Converge

Our understanding of how genetic changes underlie the evolution of traits is growing fast. Two new studies now show that changes in the same genetic loci can drive the evolution of the same trait in multiple Drosophila species.
