Convexification of Charge Equilibrium within the Dendrites of Rechargeable Batteries
Asghar Aryanfar, Dimitri M. Saad, William A. Goddard
The amorphous propagation of microstructures during the electrochemical charging of a battery is the main reason for the capacity decay and short circuit. The charge distribution a…
Control of Dendrites in Rechargeable Batteries using Smart Charging
Asghar Aryanfar, Yara Ghamlouche, William A. Goddard
In this paper we develop a feed-back control framework for the real-time minimization of microstructures grown within the rechargeable battery. Due to quickening nature of the bran…
Finite Pulse Waves for Efficient Suppression of Evolving Mesoscale Dendrites in Rechargeable Batteries
Asghar Aryanfar, Michael R. Hoffmann, William A. Goddard
The ramified and stochastic evolution of dendritic microstructures has been a major issue on the safety and longevity of rechargeable batteries, particularly for the utilization hi…
Electropolymerization: Studies and Applications / Electrodes and Double Layers
Asghar Aryanfar, Agustin J. Colussi, Laleh M. Kasmaee +1
Electropolymerization plays a critical role in the electrochemical systems. In this chapter, we address such role within the context of interplay between kinetics and energetics. T…
Constriction Percolation Model for Coupled Diffusion-Reaction Corrosion of Zirconium in PWR
Asghar Aryanfar, William A. Goddard, Jaime Marian
Percolation phenomena are pervasive in nature, ranging from capillary flow, crack propagation, ionic transport, fluid permeation, etc. Modeling percolation in highly-branched media…
