General area :

The battery is known for its strict requirement of the lowest maximum allowed working temperature in the entire electric transmission chain assembly.  This poses a problem particularly in climates with extreme temperature variations (35-45°C in summer and 0 to -30°C during winter) and during fast recharging at a significant battery power level.

Effect of Surface Energy on Mechanical Behaviour of Nano Structural Elements

Submitted by M. Shaat on

Extremely small size of nano-structures such as beams, sheets and
plates, which are commonly used as components in Nanoelectromechanical Systems
(NEMS), presents a significant challenge to the researchers of nano-mechanics.
Several studies have been developed on the mechanical behavior of nano-sized
bars, tubes, sheets and plates. The results of these studies show that the
elastic modulii of such nano-structural elements depend on their size.
Unfortunately, classical elasticity lacks an intrinsic length scale and thus
