Perspective on recent improvements in experiment and theory towards realizing lithium metal electrodes with liquid electrolytes.
Abstract The manufacturing process of Lithium‐ion battery electrodes directly affects the practical properties cells, such as their performance, durability, and safety. While computational physics‐based modeling has been proven a very useful method to produce insights on interdependencies well formation electrode microstructures, high costs prevent direct utilization in optimization loops. In this work, novel time‐dependent deep learning (DL) model is reported, demonstrated for calendering...
The Microporous Layer (MPL) plays a crucial role in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs), as its microstructure significantly influences the overall transport properties within these devices. This study introduces novel Machine Learning (ML) approach to optimize MPL and properties. Synthetic datasets were generated by considering key manufacturing parameters, including carbon particle diameter, Solid Volume Percentage (SVP), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) SVP, used calculate output...

The main advantage of silicon-based anodes for lithium-ion batteries is their high volumetric and gravimetric capacity to store Li. However, swelling upon lithiation causes cracks on the anode protective solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), creating channels enter disturb anode, leading fading, short- or open-circuit failures. We study mechanical properties LiF as a model SEI layer SiLi nanoparticle (NP) swollen by time-dependent expanding potential (TDEP) simulating Si. stress increases...
