In this paper, a method for RUL prediction is proposed combined with battery capacity aging mechanism based on transient search optimization (TSO)-temporal convolutional network (TCN) algorithm. First, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to derive three health indicators directly related to capacity loss from a simplified electrochemical model. Then, the TCN parameters are optimized with transient search algorithm to obtain the optimal prediction model. Finally, the RUL prediction are compared with other typical algorithms, and the results show that the proposed method can accurately predict the RUL of lithium-ion battery, and the life prediction error is within 10 cycles. Compared to TCN, the prediction results remain accurate even with less training data, and the error metrics are reduced by about 50% with the maximum error only 7 cycles from the 250th charge/discharge cycle.","PeriodicalId":17364,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Electrochemical Society","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142222435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The electrochemical characterization of bare SPE and modified SPE electrodes was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and Mott−Schottky analysis. A series of redox systems including paracetamol (PA), dopamine (DA), chloramphenicol (CAP), furazolidone (FZD), p-nitrophenol (p-NP), carbaryl (CBR), ofloxacin (OXF), and erythromycin (ERY) were selected to investigate for (i) reversible redox process, (ii) irreversible electrochemical oxidation process, and (iii) irreversible electrochemical reduction process on both bare-SPE and ZCO-NFs/SPE electrodes. The obtained results showed that ZCO-NFs possess the selective enhancement of electrochemical response for redox systems with an increase of 24%–90% for PAR, DA, FZD, CAP, and CBR and a decrease of 13%–49% for p-NP, ERY, and OFX. The different electrochemical response of redox species at nanostructured semiconductor electrodes is attributed to the contribution of both the adsorption capacity of redox species and the interfacial electron transfer process between electrode and redox species. An insight into the interfacial electron transfer kinetics and its contribution to the enhancement of electrochemical response on p-type semiconductor electrode is helpful in designing high-performance sensing platforms based on spinel oxide nanostructures.","PeriodicalId":17364,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Electrochemical Society","volume":"108 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142222439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Employing the NASA X-57 module billet as a strategy for mitigating thermal runaway propagation, the absorption of cell energy during failure events was observed, effectively preventing the spread of thermal runaway between cells. Notably, the use of reduced flammability electrolyte resulted in an average reduction of 104 °C in maximum thermal runaway temperature at the module level, thereby offering decreased risk in preventing thermal runaway propagation during failures. Note the relatively modest 51 °C difference observed between reduced flammability and standard flammability cells during individual cell tests. This underscores the importance of conducting tests at both the cell and module levels in the development of systems for certification, where the cell-level data indicate a 51 °C discrepancy, while the module-level analysis shows a more substantial 104 °C differentiation.","PeriodicalId":17364,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Electrochemical Society","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142222440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Realizing its highly sensitive, accurate, and rapid detection is crucial for the early warning and control of lily bulb rot.

Firstly, chitosan-functionalized carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CS@cMWCNTS) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were modified on a bare electrode by drop coating and electrochemical deposition methods, respectively. Subsequently, dopamine <italic toggle=\"yes\">β</italic>-hydroxylase (DBH) was firmly immobilized on the electrode surface through the gold-sulfur bond. Because the activity of DBH can be inhibited by FSA, which leads to a noticeable change in the signal response during the conversion of dopamine (DA) to norepinephrine (NA).
