Energy storage devices that provide high specific power without compromising on specific energy are highly desirable for many electric-powered applications. Here, we demonstrate that polymer organic radical gel materials support fast bulk-redox charge storage, commensurate to surface double layer ion exchange at carbon electrodes. When integrated with a carbon-based electrical double layer capa...

Production of carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO(2)) from canola was studied in the laboratory and in commercial storage. Canola rapidly produced amounts of CO and CO(2) far exceeding those reported for dry cereal grain and dried peas and at levels dangerous to human health. In the laboratory, canola (5.8% m.c.) was stored in sealed flasks at 25, 35 and 45 degrees C for 12 weeks. Level...

Recent advancements in battery technologies may make bulk electricity storage economically feasible. We analyze the value of two electrochemical storage technologies and traditional pumped hydropower storage in the 2010 PJM day-ahead energy market, using a reduced-form unit commitment model. We find that large-scale storage would increase overall social welfare in PJM. However, the annualized c...

A storage room contains a bulk of agricultural products, such as potatoes, onions, fruits, etcetera. The products produce heat due to respiration, see for example [?, ?]. A ventilator blows cooled air around to keep the products at a steady temperature and prevent spoilage. The aim is to design a control law such that the product temperature is kept at a constant, desired level. The system cont...

The data cube is an aggregate operator which has been shown to be very powerful for On Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) in the context of data warehousing. It is, however, very expensive to compute, access, and maintain. In this paper we de ne the \cubetree" as a storage abstraction of the cube and realize it using packed R-trees for most e cient cube queries. We then reduce the problem of cre...

GridSite has extended the industry­standard Apache webserver for use within Grid projects, both by adding support for Grid security credentials such as GSI and VOMS, and with the GridHTTP protocol for bulk file transfer via HTTP. We describe how GridHTTP combines the security model of X.509/HTTPS with the performance of Apache, in local and wide area bulk transfer applications. GridSite also su...

Here, we prepared bulk graphdiyne (GDY) powder with porous structure and explored its lithium storage properties. The assembled lithium ion batteries exhibited superior electrochemical performance, including high specific capacity, excellent rate performance and long cycle life, which should be attributed to the unique structure, high electronic conductivity and chemical stability of GDY.
