Multiscale modeling of lithium ion batteries: thermal aspects

The thermal behavior of lithium ion batteries has a huge impact on their lifetime and the initiation of degradation processes. The development of hot spots or large local overpotentials leading, e.g., to lithium metal deposition depends on material properties as well as on the nano- und microstructure of the electrodes. In recent years a theoretical structure emerges, which opens the possibilit...

Experimental Studies of Ion Emission from Rpi-ibis Facility and Modeling of Ion Motions

The paper presents the recent measurements of ion beams emitted from an RPI-IBIS plasma injector and some preliminary results of the theoretical modeling. The RPI-IBIS facility was equipped with coaxial electrodes made of thin molybdenum rods and a fast acting electromagnetic valve for the injection of a working gas. Plasma discharges were initiated with a variable time delay (τ ) after the gas...

Multiscale Modeling of Malaria

Parasitic infectious diseases like malaria and certain hereditary hematologic disorders are often associated with major changes in the shape and viscoelastic properties of red blood cells. Such changes can disrupt blood flow and, possibly, brain perfusion, as in the case of cerebral malaria. In recent work on stochastic multiscale models—in conjunction with large-scale parallel computing—we wer...
