I have a hard time finding problem sets for validation and
benchmarking of methods and codes for 3d fluid simulation with free
boundaries. Please guide me to (standardized) problem sets or key
litterture that is a suitable starting point. If there are not many
standardized tests I would like to initiate a dsicussion about what a
good test collection should be. I understand that iMechanica is focused
more on solid mechanics than fluid dynamics but the overlap is big.  

The Nobel, Graphene and 20% Google

Only after learning that 2010 nobelists AK Geim and Novoselov* got the
 inspiration for Graphene during a 20% time break from "ongoing"
lab research. Did I realize how important is to have a "scheduled" free mind 
and open Lab environment.
 
Does your lab practice "crazy friday" experiments jam sessions like Dr. Geim Lab in Manchester?
 

Fracture of electrodes in lithium-ion batteries caused by fast charging

lithium-ion battery

During charging or discharging of a lithium-ion battery, lithium is extracted from one electrode and inserted into the other.  This extraction-insertion reaction causes the electrodes to deform.  An electrode is often composed of small active particles in a matrix.  If the battery is charged at a rate faster than lithium can homogenize in an active particle by diffusion, the inhomogeneous distribution of lithium results in stresses that may cause the particle to fracture.  The distributions of lithium and stress in a LiCoO2 particle are calculated.  The e

DISCUSSION THEMES 
  • Assessing the potential of ageing infrastructure to provide the same level of service as newly constructed facilities
  • Identifying the key threats to the integrity of a pipeline in later life
  • New solutions for old pipelines: revealing how new technologies can
    help ensure reliability of older infrastructure and assessing the
    future outlook for mature pipes
  • Taking the necessary steps to make sure that older pipelines are operated within regulatory requirements
