A review on first principles based studies for improvement of cathode material of lithium ion batteries

Lithium ion batteries（LIBs） are currently best energy storage devices providing rechargeable electrical storage to wide variety of applications – from portable electronics to automobiles. Though, these batteries are fully adopted, widely used and commercialized, but researchers are still extensively working on their constituent materials and developing technology to improve their performance. A major part of related research activities is devoted to the electrode of the battery for improvement in its performance thereby addressing issues like safety, lifetime, specific capacity, energy density and most importantly abundance and cost. There are number of cathode materials that have been proposed and tested at laboratory scale and subsequently utilized in commercialized batteries ever since the appearance of LIBs. Owing to the availability of improved computational resources in the last decade, first principles calculation has become a reliable tool and played a vital role to predict the material properties of electrodes prior to their experimental analysis. This review gives a comprehensive insight and thorough analysis of the global research efforts related to the cathode materials based on first principles framework, sheds light on current status of knowledge and explores the ways forward.

Constrained Hamilton variational principle for shallow water problems and Zu-class symplectic algorithm

In this paper, the shallow water problem is discussed. By treating the incompressible condition as the constraint, a constrained Hamilton variational principle is presented for the shallow water problem. Based on the constrained Hamilton variational principle, a shallow water equation based on displacement and pressure （SWE-DP） is developed. A hybrid numerical method combining the finite element method for spa- tial discretization and the Zu-class method for time integration is created for the SWE- DP. The correctness of the proposed SWE-DP is verified by numerical comparisons with two existing shallow water equations （SWEs）. The effectiveness of the hybrid numerical method proposed for the SWE-DP is also verified by numerical experiments. Moreover, the numerical experiments demonstrate that the Zu-class method shows excellent perfor- mance with respect to simulating the long time evolution of the shallow water.

Transformation and assessment of Chinese pine pure plantations for soil and water conservation in western Liaoning Province,P. R. China

Western Liaoning Province is characterized by huge areas of lowly-efficient Chinese pine (Pinus tabulaeformis Carr.) pure plantations. How to transform these plantations has become an increasingly significant management problem. In this study, the authors summarized the approaches, which are based on close-to-nature silvicultural system, to transform the pure pine plantations. Native broadleaved trees were planted in three methods: 1) after strip clearcutting, 2) after patch clearcutting; 3) on the open forestland and the forest edge. The transformation targets and the selection of tree species were expatiated in this paper. The key techniques and their application conditions for each method were analyzed and discussed. Through investigation and contrastive analysis, the assessment was made to the stands transformed by strip method. Results showed that the mixed stands at 16 years after transformation had an obvious layered structure and the species richness of understorey vegetation increased by 23.5%–52.9%. Soil enzyme activities of urease, phosphatase and sucrase increased by 6%–142%, 46%–99% and 31%–200%, respetively. Moreover, the transformed stands could effectively control the occurrence of pine caterpillars in plantations. Consequently the transformations enhanced the function of soil and water conservation.

First principles study of CuAlO_2 doping with S

We study the electronic properties of CuAlO2 doped with S by the first principles calculations and find that the band gap of CuAlO2 is reduced after the doping.At the same time,the effective masses are also reduced and the density of states could cross the Fermi level.These results show that the conductivity of CuAlO2 could be enhanced by doping the impurities of S,which needs to be further studied.

Site Occupation of Nb in γ-TiAI:Beyond the Point Defect Gas Approximation

Microalloying is an effective approach to improve the mechanical properties of γ-TiAl intermetallic compound.Knowledge about the site occupancy of the ternary alloying element in the crystal lattice ofγ-TiAl is highly demanded in order to understand the physics underlying the alloying effect.Previous first-principle methods-based thermodynamic models for the determination of the site occupancy were based on the point defect gas approximation with the interaction between the point defects neglected.In the present work,we include the point defect interaction energy in the thermodynamic model,which allows us to predict the site occupancy of the ternary alloying element inγ-TiAl beyond the point defect gas approximation.The model is applied to theγ-TiAl-Nb alloy.We show that,at low temperature,the site occupancy of Nb atoms depends on the composition of the alloy:Nb atoms occupy the A1 sublattice for the Ti-rich alloy but occupy Ti sublattice for the Al-rich alloy.The fraction of Nb atoms occupying A1 sublattice in the Ti-rich alloy decreases drastically,whereas the fraction of Nb atoms on the Ti sublattice in the Al-rich alloy decreases slightly with increasing temperature.At high temperature,Nb atoms occupy dominantly the Ti sublattice for both the Ti-rich and Al-rich alloys.The interaction between the point defects makes the Ti sublattice more favorable for the Nb atoms to occupy.

Design of Non-rational MIMO Feedback Systems with Inputs and Outputs Satisfying Certain Bounding Conditions by Using Rational Approximants

When a feedback system has components described by non-rational transfer functions, a standard practice in designing such a system is to replace the non-rational functions with rational approximants and then carry out the design with the approximants by means of a method that copes with rational systems. In order to ensure that the design carried out with the approximants still provides satisfactory results for the original system, a criterion of approximation should be explicitly taken into account in the design formulation. This paper derives such a criterion for multi-input multi-output（MIMO） feedback systems whose design objective is to ensure that the absolute values of every error and every controller output components always stay within prescribed bounds whenever the inputs satisfy certain bounding conditions. The obtained criterion generalizes a known result which was derived for single-input single-output（SISO） systems; furthermore, for a given rational approximant matrix, it is expressed as a set of inequalities that can be solved in practice. Finally, a controller for a binary distillation column is designed by using the criterion in conjunction with the method of inequalities. The numerical results clearly demonstrate that the usefulness of the criterion in obtaining a design solution for the original system.
