Challenges associated with in-service mechanical degradation of Li-ion battery cathodes has prompted a transition from polycrystalline to single crystal cathode materials. Whilst for single crystal materials, dislocation-assisted crack…
In this study, we address the challenge of electrolyte degradation in all-solid-state humidified Li-$O_2$ batteries, which offer high theoretical energy density and potential cost advantages over conventional lithium-ion batteries.…
Despite a rigorous analysis of nonlinear electrohydrodynamics of a liquid droplet deformation in air, its influence on the surrounding gas phase has received less attention. We observed, air circulations created due to large deformation…
Due to the rapid growth in the demand for high-energy-density Li batteries and insufficient global Li reserves, the anode-free Li metal batteries are receiving increasing attention. Various strategies, such as surface modification and…
The electrical potential in a battery jumps at each electrode-electrolyte interface. We present a model for computing three-dimensional current and potential distributions, which accounts for such internal voltage jumps. Within the…
Weakly conducting dielectric liquid drops suspended in another dielectric liquid and subject to an applied uniform electric field exhibit a wide range of dynamical behaviors contingent on field strength and material properties. These…
In the present study, we have studied the electro-hydrodynamic of a physical system where a Newtonian dielectric liquid column or droplet suspended in another Newtonian dielectric liquid medium in presence of a simple shear flow. Taking…
This article presents an investigation of a transient (30 {\mu}s - 5 ms) electrical discharge in metal vapour with low voltage (< 50 V) and current (< 1 A), drawn between two separating electrodes. Discharges of this type are rarely…
The deformation of a viscous liquid droplet suspended in another liquid and subject to an applied electric field is a classic multiphase flow problem best described by the Melcher-Taylor leaky dielectric model. The main assumption of the…
The breakup of water droplets when exposed to high-speed gas flows is investigated using both high-magnification shadowgraphy experiments as well as fully three-dimensional numerical simulations, which account for viscous as well as…
Leakage currents through insulators received continuous attention for decades, owing to their importance for a wide range of technologies, and interest in their fundamental mechanisms. This work investigates the leakage currents through…
Li metal is an ideal anode material for use in state-of-the-art secondary batteries. However, Li-dendrite growth is a safety concern and results in low coulombic efficiency, which significantly restricts the commercial application of Li…
An isothermal porous-electrode model of a discharging lead-acid battery is presented, which includes an extension of concentrated-solution theory that accounts for excluded-volume effects, local pressure variation, and a detailed…

Rechargeable lithium, sodium, and aluminum metal-based batteries are among the most versatile platform for high-energy, cost effective electrochemical energy storage. Non-uniform metal deposition and dendrite formation on the negative…
Battery electrode surfaces are generally coated with electronically insulating solid films of thickness 1-50 nm. Both electrons and Li+ can move at the electrode-surface film interface in response to the voltage, which adds complexity to…
Magnetohydrodynamically induced interface instability in liquid metal batteries is analyzed. The batteries are represented by a simplified system in the form of a rectangular cell, in which strong vertical electric current flows through…
