Concentration-Dependent Thermodynamics and Kinetics in Lithium-Metal Battery Electrolytes: Implications for Coulombic Efficiency
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-02)Lithium (Li)-metal batteries (LMBs) present a promising avenue for high-energy applications. However, their practical adoption is constrained by challenges such as dendrite formation and unstable interphases. This study ... -
1500W High Voltage DC-DC Converter for Electroaerodynamic Aircraft Applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)Electroaerodynamic (EAD) propulsion is a novel form of propulsion that is nearly silent and has no moving parts. The first functional untethered heavier-than-air EAD aircraft had an endurance of 90 seconds and could only ... -
Feasibility Analysis and Fuel Burn Benefits of Relaxing Constraints in High Altitude Cruise
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)Operational interventions, such as enabling more fuel-efficient trajectories, are desirable in mitigating the environmental impact of air travel due to their relatively fast implementation potential. In particular, the ...
