Vasileiadis, A. (author), Li, Yuqi (author), Lu, Yaxiang (author), Hu, Yong Sheng (author), Wagemaker, M. (author)There are several questions and controversies regarding the Na storage mechanism in hard carbon. This springs from the difficulty of probing the vast diversity of possible configurational environments for Na storage, including surface and defect sites, edges, pores, and intercalation morphologies. In the effort to explain the observed voltage...journal article 2023

Kouwerberg, Sang Jae (author), Alpizar Castillo, J.J. (author), Ramirez Elizondo, L.M. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Batteries are one of the main tools to provide the flexibility distribution and transmission systems need due to their increasing dependence on weather conditions. However, environmental and economic factors pose a significant problem. New types of batteries that do not rely on rare earth metals and organic solvents but instead use water and...conference paper 2023

Grazian, F. (author), Soeiro, Thiago B. (author), Bauer, P. (author)The lithium-ion battery of an electric vehicle (EV) is typically rated at either 400 or 800 V. When considering public parking infrastructures, EV wireless chargers must efficiently deliver electric power to both battery options. This can be normally achieved by regulating the output voltage through a dc-dc converter at the cost of higher...journal article 2023

Mitici, M.A. (author), Hennink, Birgitte (author), Pavel, M.D. (author), Dong, J. (author)The health management of batteries is a key enabler for the adoption of Electric Vertical Take-off and Landing vehicles (eVTOLs). Currently, few studies consider the health management of eVTOL batteries. One distinct characteristic of batteries for eVTOLs is that the discharge rates are significantly larger during take-off and landing, compared...journal article 2023
