Residual‐Lithium‐to‐LiF Conversion Enables a LiF–Fluorinated Carbon Interphase for Reconstruction‐Resistant Ni‐Rich Cathodes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A fluorine‐rich acrylate monomer (PFHEA) was solvent‐free applied to NCM90 and thermally decomposed under Ar to convert residual lithium into LiF and form a pre‐built LiF/fluorinated amorphous carbon (LiF/FC) interphase. The LiF/FC layer suppresses NiO rock‐salt reconstruction and microcrack propagation, lowers interfacial resistance, and improves Li ...

Coating Artificial Spider Silk Fiber with Magnetic FeCo: An Effective Strategy for Creating a Flexible Magneto‐Responsive Material

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An original method is presented for producing artificial spider silk fibers with magnetic and magnetomechanical responsiveness, which consists in coating them with a nanometer‐thick layer of FeCo alloy by sputtering deposition. The challenge of combining organic materials and inorganic magnetic nanostructures is addressed, thus taking a step forward ...

Nuclear Power Plants

2015
Currently, about half of all nuclear power plants are located in the United States. There are many different kinds of nuclear power plants, and we will discuss a few important designs in this text. A nuclear power plant harnesses the energy inside atoms themselves and converts this to electricity. All of us use this electricity. In Sect.

Nuclear power plant maintainability

Applied Ergonomics, 1982
In the mid-1970s a general awareness of human factors engineering deficiencies associated with power plant control rooms took shape and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) awarded the Lockheed Corporation a contract to review the human factors aspects of five representative operational control rooms and their associated simulators.

Nuclear Power Plants and Maintainability

Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1965
The expanding use of nuclear energy in the power generation field is such that the maintainability aspects of design and maintenance concepts will soon be of interest to an increasingly larger number of designers, logisticians and human factors engineers. This article presents a broad-brush treatment of the effect that radiations have on maintenance of

Nuclear Power Plants

2018
Nuclear power plants are thermal power plants similar, to those burning fossil fuels. The main difference lies within the source of heat used to generate steam. In conventional power plants fossil fuels are burned in the boiler to generate high pressure steam that is used to drive the turbines which produce electricity.

A Simulation Environment for Nuclear Power Plants

Eighth IEEE International Symposium on Distributed Simulation and Real-Time Applications, 2004
The development of simulators for complex systems like nuclear power plants is a hard task where many different factors have to be considered. This paper presents a simulation environment composed by a simulation kernel and supported by a set of tools and simulation models that allow the real-time simulation of the control room of nuclear power plants.

Nuclear Power Plants

2012
The building of more nuclear power plants is one of the proposed solutions to the increasing production of anthropogenic CO2 and the mitigation of the global warming threat. Had the USA constructed an additional 56 nuclear power plants in the 1990s, the country would have been in compliance with the Kyoto protocol.
