Journal of Electrochemistry

All solid-state lithium-sulfur batteries (ASSLSBs) are considered to be one of the most promising next-generation energy storage systems, due to the promises of high energy density and safety. Although the use of solid-state electrolytes could effectively suppress the "shuttle effect" and self-discharge of the conventional liquid lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery, the commercialization of ASSLSBs has been seriously hampered by the electrolyte degradation, electrode/electrolyte interfacial deterioration, electrochemo-mechanical failure, lithium dendrite growth and electrode pulverization, etc. This paper provides a comprehensive review of recent research progresses on the solid-state electrolytes, sulfur-containing composite cathodes, lithium metal and lithium alloy anodes, and electrode/electrolyte interfaces in …

Bimetallic Compound Catalysts With Multiple Active Centers For Accelerated Polysulfide Conversion In Li-S Batteries, Wu-Xing Hua, Jing-Yi Xia, Zhong-Hao Hu, Huan Li, Wei Lv, Quan-Hong Yang

Journal of Electrochemistry

Practical applications of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are hindered mainly by the low sulfur utilization and severe capacity fading derived from the polysulfide shuttling. Catalysis is an effective remedy to those problems by promoting the conversion of polysulfides to reduce their accumulation in the electrolyte, which needs the catalyst to have efficient adsorption ability to soluble polysulfides and high activity for their conversion. In this work, we have proposed a bimetallic compound of NiCo₂S₄ anchored onto sulfur-doped graphene (NCS@SG) to fabricate a catalytic interlayer for Li-S batteries. Compared to CoS, the NiCo₂S₄ demonstrated much higher …

Journal of Electrochemistry

The commercial application of lithium-sulfur batteries (LSB) is still limited by the irreversible capacity fading caused by the shuttle of lithium polysulfides (LIPS). To address this issue, a bimetal (nickel, cobalt)-organic framework (MOF) derived carbon, (Ni, Co)/C, was prepared to modify the separator. The multifunctionally modified separator effectively captures LIPS, ensuring the stability and reversibility of sulfur fixation, while providing catalytic activity and improving ionic conductivity. The cobalt metal has a larger coordination number, more pore structure distribution, larger specific surface area, more surface C=O, and smaller particle size to achieve a large and rapid chemical sulfur fixation.

Wavefield Separation Of P- And S-Waves Based On Modified Pseudo-Helmholtz Decomposition Operator In Transverse Isotropic Media, Liu Zhaoshun, Du Qizhen, Lyu Wenhao, Zhou Shihao, Fu Liyun

Coal Geology & Exploration

The separation of P- and S-wave fields is a significant step in elastic reverse-time migration (ERTM), which can effectively eliminate the waveform crosstalk and image artifacts, thus improving the precision of imaging. In anisotropic media, nonstationary spatial filters or low-rank approximation methods are commonly used to separate the wavefields. However, the application of multiple Fourier transforms results in the high computation costs of the above wavefield separation methods. Based on the idea of constructing the isotropic decoupling equations of P- and S- waves with the Helmholtz operator, a modified pseudo-Helmholtz decomposition operator was proposed to eliminate the amplitude distortion. Then, …

Coal Geology & Exploration

Radio-magnetotelluric method (RMT) is one of the important tools for shallow surface electromagnetic exploration. Since the exploration frequency band is 10‒300 kHz, the propagation of electromagnetic fields is greatly affected by the dielectric permittivity of the earth. The electromagnetic response calculated with traditional quasi-static conditions severely restricts the accuracy of RMT forward modeling and further affects the resolution of the inversion imaging. In response to this problem, a numerical simulation method of full-current RMT electromagnetic response based on Julia parallel acceleration was proposed. Then, the calculation of each frequency point was sent through the distributed computing in Julia to different …

Inversion Of Self-Potential Data Based On Improved Sparrow Search Algorithm, Lang Jianxiang, Tang Hongzhi, Ai Hanbing

Coal Geology & Exploration

Self-potential (SP) method is a natural source geophysical prospecting technology with low cost and simple operation for field observation. Generally, the inversion of SP data has the characteristics of ill-posedness and non-linearity. The conventional inversion algorithms are classified into the types of local optimization and global search. However, it is hard for the gradient-based local optimization algorithm to obtain the global optimal solution, and the inversion results are dependent on the construction of initial model. The traditional global search algorithm has the disadvantages of low convergence rate, insufficient ability of escaping local minima and instability. Thus, a new global optimization …

UNO Student Research and Creative Activity Fair

Human movement is inherently variable by nature. One of the most common analytical tools for assessing movement variability is the largest Lyapunov exponent (LyE) which quantifies the rate of trajectory divergence or convergence in an n-dimensional state space. One popular method for assessing LyE is the Wolf algorithm. Many studies have investigated how Wolf’s calculation of the LyE changes due to sampling frequency, filtering, data normalization, and stride normalization. However, a surprisingly understudied parameter needed for LyE computation is evolution time. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the LyE changes as a function of evolution time …
