Mechanical stress wave propagation in granular materials has attracted much attention for exploring new physical phenomena due to versatile engineering applications. One-dimensional (1D) granular systems, a type of artificially designed granular m...
The rapidly growing demands on energy storage technologies over the last decade have imposed further requirements for the high energy/power density, safety, and durability of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Si/C composite materials have attracted en...
Safety issues of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are usually initiated from an internal short circuit (ISC) that can be triggered by external accidental abusive loadings. The generated heat and the increased temperature would lead to several complica...
The sustainability requirement for both the energy and environment has triggered clean energy usage in the automotive industry such that electric vehicles (EVs) powered by lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have now become the popular choices for curren...
All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) are considered promising candidates for next-generation batteries due to their excellent safety performance guaranteed by inorganic solid electrolytes (SEs) with the non-flammability nature, as well as the greatly...
