A Relief Zone Architecture for Enhanced Durability of Ultrathin Membranes in Electrochemical Conversion Devices

Premature cell failures in electrochemical conversion systems often result when membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) are prepared with ultra-thin (= 15 micrometer-thick) polymer electrolyte membranes (PEMs). These high-performance PEMs are susceptible to mechanical degradation from stress concentrations arising from component and device-level integration. Herein, a relief zone was developed to mitigate mechanical degradation by alleviating excess and non-uniform compression across the active area. Relief zones, created through the ablation of carbonaceous diffusion material achieves a seamless adaptation across a range of MEA dimensions and electrochemical applications without need for costly hardware modifications. This concept was demonstrated using fuel cells as a case study. Accelerated stress test (AST) validations yielded a 6-fold improvement for MEAs prepared with relief zones (i.e., lifetime approximately 1500 h) compared to those fabricated using conventional edge-protection techniques, showcasing the utility of this technique in decoupling integration and device-level engineering effects from intrinsic material limitations for durable electrochemical devices.

Utah FORGE: Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) Data

The FORGE team is making these fracture models available to researchers wanting a set of natural fractures in the FORGE reservoir for use in their own modeling work. They have been used to predict stimulation distances during hydraulic stimulation at the open toe section of well 16A(78)-32. These fracture sets are fully stochastic and do not contain the deterministic set that matches the pilot well 58-32 FMI data. Well 58-32 has been completed and 16A(78)-32 is to be drilled as part of Phase 3. The original .fab files are not included due to redundancy. The *.fabgz data for the 800m and 1200m depth areas are in the native FracMan format and have been compressed using Gzip. Filtered data for the 800m depth area includes .csv spreadsheets, native FracMan (.fab), and GOCAD (.ts) files that are in a compressed zip format. The file titled "SGW 2020 Finnila and Podgorney DFN fracture files on GDR.pdf" is a description of the data and should be reviewed prior to data use.

Compression–tension cell with sample manipulator for in situ X‐ray nanotomography experiments

In situ X-ray nanotomography experiments where tensile or compressive force is applied on the sample require specialized equipment. A compression-tension device with fluid flow-through capability has been designed for X-ray nanotomography beamlines. The compression-tension cell is equipped with a triaxial stage for sample alignment and a high sensitivity loadcell for measurement of applied force. To handle the <100 µm samples used for X-ray nanotomography imaging and for loading samples on the compression-tension cell a sample manipulator has been built. The sample manipulator is capable of selecting a single <100 µm particle for nanotomography scanning while viewing multiple samples under an optical microscope. To test the functionality of these two devices an initial compression experiment involving two glass beads was performed. To demonstrate instrument stability two spherical glass beads were compressed from a no load condition until one of the beads fractured. Nanotomography data were collected at each step of increasing compressive force. The experimentally observed contact area of the spherical glass beads was compared with the theoretical estimate using the Hertz analysis. To demonstrate the fluid flow capability, two calcite grains were compressed against each other under a calcite saturated solution. Surface topological changes were observed for the stressed grain contact area.

Recovery of Natural Gas Equipment Emissions into Gas Compression Engines for the Reduction of Potential Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Since the turn of the millennium, the United States (U.S.) oil and natural gas (ONG) industry has nearly doubled its natural gas production rate. As a result, the ONG industry has recently come under increasing scrutiny for its contributions to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Consequently, various solutions to this problem have been proposed and formulated to reduce the impacts of GHG emissions on the environment. West Virginia University (WVU) have found it important to research the impacts of recovering vented gas streams into prime-mover engines. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) have granted WVU funding to research and develop a “Methane Mitigator” (M2) - a “Scalable Vent Mitigation Strategy to Simultaneously Reduce Methane Emissions and Fuel Consumption from the Compression Industry.” One of the main areas of interest for this research was the collection of emissions from natural gas equipment into a Caterpillar G3508J natural gas compression engine. The parameters being analyzed from the engine were brake-specific emissions and power output. The emissions sources considered for this research were pneumatic controllers (PCs), reciprocating compressor vents, and the engine’s open crankcase breather. The compressor vent and PC emissions were simulated using a mass flow controller (MFC) and flowed into the engine using two separate methods: (1) directly into the air intake, and (2) through a retrofitted closed crankcase ventilation system (CCV), serving as a buffer volume. The crankcase emissions were quantified without the CCV, and the impact on exhaust emissions from circulating the crankcase gases into the intake was measured. The simulated compressor vent and PC flows from the MFC had limited effect on the steady state operation of the engine and resulting performance. When the simulated flows were fed directly into the engine’s air intake, the changes within the engine’s continuous performance and emission parameters were larger but lasted for shorter durations. Conversely, when the simulated flows were fed into the CCV before entering the air intake, the changes in the engine’s performance and emission parameters were less pronounced for continuous analysis but lasted for longer durations. In either case, the continuous emission changes in both emissions and performance varied in size depending on the test scenario being run, but the cycle average changes in emissions and performance showed little impact overall compared to the engine’s baseline operation. As a result, the inclusion of a CCV shows a decrease in baseline carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2-eq.) engine emissions (from combined exhaust and open crankcase) of almost 4%. Likewise, the CCV inclusion reduced baseline total methane (CH4) from combined exhaust and open crankcase by upwards of 16%. These atmospheric emissions only decreased further with the inclusions of collected PC and compressor vent flows. The resulting changes in time-averaged rated exhaust behavior (or lack thereof) prove that the proposed M2 system could likely be deployed at sites with modern lean-burn natural gas engines as a viable option for reducing and eliminating potential GHG sources that would have otherwise been unutilized as energy sources.

Asynchronicity in opposed-piston RCMs: Does it matter?

Rapid Compression Machines (RCMs) are widely utilized to study combustion phenomena at engine-relevant conditions, and significant efforts are typically made to create a quiescent environment, particularly for investigations of autoignition chemistry. Opposed-piston configurations can be advantageous due to shorter compression times and reduced surface area to volume ratios. Each side must be actuated simultaneously, but this can be challenging in practice. These devices, like most RCMs, utilize hydraulics for actuation, speed control and arrestation of the piston at the end of the stroke; there is no mechanical control or linkage of the two piston trajectories. To quantify the magnitudes and effects of piston asynchronous behavior, this work employs both detailed experimental measurements and, for the first time, high-fidelity, Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). The boundary conditions are carefully considered applying insight from high-resolution linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) measurements of the piston trajectory and a zero-dimensional kinematics model of the piston-shaft assembly. Sufficient resolution in the piston crevice region is used. The complicated fluid dynamical behavior that can evolve during piston compression and the ensuing delay processes due to offset timings from t offset = 0-10 ms is elucidated. It is found that near t offset = 6 ms and beyond, the boundary layer on the face of the first-seating piston can be sufficiently perturbed, due initially to reemergence of gas from the crevice of the firstseating piston, so that the adiabatic core can become degraded at long ignition delay times. Substantial mixing of colder gas into the interior of the reaction chamber can alter the measurements, similar to effects previously observed for improper piston crevice configuration. In conclusion, experimental techniques to mitigate asynchronous behavior are discussed and demonstrated.

Composites and additive manufacturing for high-field coil supports for stellarators

The utilization of composites layered on an additive manufactured substrate, for the production of coil supports for modular coils in small or middle size experimental stellarators is assessed. The focus of the study is a monolithic coil support comprising the coils of a half-period of a stellarator, somewhat similar to the ones in UST_2 and ARIES-CS stellarators. However, the concept may be applicable to quasi-monolithic coil supports (coil forms of NCSX type) or individual coil casings (W7-X type).Coil supports for stellarators require high precision, stiffness and strength for large contorted parts. Traditionally, monolithic coil supports are produced by steel casting/forging and final machining. This production method and material gives accurate, stiff and strong coil supports, but the method may be expensive for monolithic supports due to the geometrical complexity and required accuracy of the structure. In relation to those matters, this work investigates whether a monolithic coil support comprising an additive manufactured resin substrate, which is externally (outward from the coils) surrounded with a thick layer of fibre-reinforced resin, may achieve enough strength and stiffness under middle/high magnetic fields. Finite element calculations are produced to obtain the direction of the principal stresses and their values in compression and tension at different areas of the monolithic support, which is relevant for anisotropic materials. The feasibility of directional application of (carbon) fibres on the winding surface of the stellarator outward from the coils is experimentally tested on a scaled-down additively manufactured prototype of a monolithic support. The strength and stiffness of the composite structure appears sufficient for common magnetic fields in experimental stellarators, and the 3D-composite design and manufacturing was technically feasible.

Can classical DEM simultaneously capture compressibility and flowability of milled biomass?

Accurate prediction of the rheological behavior of biomass is essential for the design and operation of hoppers, feeders, and storage systems in biorefineries. This study examines whether the classical, coarse-grained discrete element method (DEM) formulation can simultaneously reproduce the compressibility and flowability of milled herbaceous biomass, using Miscanthus × giganteus as a representative material. The model represents particles as rigid spheres interacting through Hertz-Mindlin elastic-frictional contacts augmented with an area-dependent cohesion term. Laboratory cyclic compression and wedge-shaped hopper discharge experiments were used as calibration benchmarks. Although the model can independently reproduce each behavior by appropriately tuning particle Young's modulus E and cohesion energy density k, an extensive parametric investigation comprising more than 600 simulations reveals that the optimal parameter regions for compression and hopper flow are distinct and non-overlapping in (E, k) space. Surrogate surface analysis further shows that the corresponding objective-function valleys exhibit similar trends but are approximately parallel and spatially offset, precluding a unified calibration within the explored domain. Sensitivity analysis indicates that compressibility is governed predominantly by stiffness and cohesion, whereas the slope of the mass flow rate-opening relation in hopper discharge is primarily controlled by tangential friction. Extensions incorporating particle size distribution and clumped-sphere representations do not eliminate the incompatibility. These results systematically reveal, for the first time, the structural limitation of simplified DEM formulations in representing biomass rheological behavior, underscoring the necessity for models incorporating additional physical mechanisms, such as particle deformability or enhanced interlocking, to achieve unified predictive capability for biomass handling behavior.

Partitioning of Seven Different Classes of Antibiotics into LPS Monolayers Supports Three Different Permeation Mechanisms through the Outer Bacterial Membrane

The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative (G-) bacteria presents a barrier for x classes of antibacterial agents. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), present in the outer leaflet of the OM, is stabilized by divalent cations and is considered to be the major impediment for antibacterial agent permeation. However, the actual affinities of major antibiotic classes toward LPS have not yet been determined. In the present work, we use Langmuir monolayers formed from E. coli Re and Rd types of LPS to record pressure-area isotherms in the presence of antimicrobial agents. Our observations suggest three general types of interactions. Firstly, some antimicrobials demonstrated no measurable interactions with LPS. This lack of interaction in the case of cefsulodin, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, correlates with its low efficacy against G- bacteria. Ampicillin and ciprofloxacin also show no interactions with LPS, but in contrast to cefsulodin, both exhibit good efficacy against G- bacteria, indicating permeation through common porins. Secondly, we observe substantial intercalation of the more hydrophobic antibiotics novobiocin, rifampicin, azithromycin, and telithromycin into relaxed LPS monolayers. These largely re-partition back to the subphase with monolayer compression. We find that the hydrophobic area, charge, and dipole all show correlations with both the mole fraction of antibiotic retained in the monolayer at the monolayer-bilayer equivalence pressure and the efficacies of these antibiotics against G- bacteria. Thirdly, amine-rich gentamicin and the cationic antimicrobial peptides polymyxin B and colistin show no hydrophobic insertion but are instead strongly driven into the polar LPS layer by electrostatic interactions in a pressure-independent manner. Their intercalation stably increases the area per molecule (by up to 20%), which indicates massive formation of defects in the LPS layer. These defects support a self-promoted permeation mechanism of these antibiotics through the OM, which explains the high efficacy and specificity of these antimicrobials against G- bacteria.

Development of Automated Material Handling System with Alternate Gripper Designs for the Purpose of Increased Performance & Worker Safety

Savannah River National Laboratory’s (SRNL) Surplus Plutonium Disposition (SPD) Program leads the development and transition of automated unit operations for the processing of Plutonium oxide. A mixing can is opened, filled with material, mixed, set inside of a die can, and finally punched into compressed material. Replication of the process is constructed in A-area, where the mixing can weighs 1.6 kg (3.5 lbs.) and the compressed material weighs 4 kg (8.8 lbs.). Due to the constant process of Plutonium disposition, the fatigue on workers and worker dose accumulates quickly over time. SPD aims to automate this process by using a robotic arm to replace the hands-on worker. Automation will: Reduce worker radiation dose; Increase process throughout; Reduce costs for the disposition of Plutonium oxide.

LightMAT: Continous Fiber Malleable Thermoset Composites with sub-1-minute dwell times; validation of impact performance and evaluation of the efficacy of the compression forming process

Recent major advances in polymer chemistry are enabling a paradigm shift in the area of processing and re-processing/recycling of advanced composite materials. Inexpensive compression molding with short cycle times, traditionally available for thermoplastic composites only, are now possible for the thermoset resins based on polyimine chemistry. Participant will collaborate with the LightMAT consortium Labs ORNL, SNL, and PNNL to non-destructively characterize microscopic structural defects (such as voids and resin-rich areas), and perform high speed impact characterization of its malleable thermoset CFRP's. This work is critical to the validation and adoption of these materials for the automotive market and towards DOE-VTO lightweighting mission objectives.

Structural Changes in Films of Pulmonary Surfactant Induced by Surfactant Vesicles

When compressed by the shrinking alveolar surface area during exhalation, films of pulmonary surfactant in situ reduce surface tension to levels, at which surfactant monolayers collapse from the surface in vitro. Vesicles of pulmonary surfactant added below these monolayers slow collapse. X-ray scattering here determined the structural changes that improve stability. Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction on monolayers of extracted calf surfactant detected an ordered phase. Mixtures of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol, but not the phospholipid alone, mimic that structure. At concentrations that stabilize the monolayers, vesicles in the subphase had no effect on the unit cell, and the film remained monomolecular. The added vesicles, however, produced a concentration-dependent increase in the diffracted intensity. These results suggest that the enhanced resistance to collapse results from components of an ordered interfacial phase which partition from subphase to the surface, increasing the area of the ordered structure.

Deformation twinning and detwinning in extruded Mg-4Al: In-situ experiment and crystal plasticity simulation

Deformation twinning and detwinning in extruded Mg-4Al were investigated using in-situ SEM-DIC experiments and crystal plasticity finite element (CPFE) simulation. In this study, the in-situ SEM-DIC method was used to provide a unique set of data including twin/detwin characteristics and twin area fraction in addition to strain maps. A statistical analysis of the activation of twin variants and twin area fraction during both twinning and detwinning was conducted. A strong correlation was found between twin growth/shrinkage and the Schmid Factor (SF) for individual twin variants Higher twin SF during loading and unloading led to higher twin growth and shrinkage, respectively. However, after the applied compressive strain was removed, the pattern of the twin area fractions of the residual twin variants versus their nominal SFs did not follow the trend observed at the maximum compressive strain. Using a systematic methodology and an advanced twin/detwin model, the PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE simulation was calibrated using experimentally determined stress versus strain and twin area fraction versus strain information. A comprehensive evaluation of the CPFE model was conducted to determine its ability to capture the statistics of twin variants activation and twin area fraction. CPFE accurately captured the statistical aspects of both twinning and detwinning. Finally, it also predicted the first dominant twin variant for 47.5% of the grains and at least one of the two dominant twin variants for 80% of the grains at maximum compressive strain.

Improved Understanding of Coupled Water and Carbon Cycle Processes through Machine Learning Approaches

Focal Area(s): This white paper addresses how explainable machine learning (ML) algorithms can improve insights gained from complex data (Focal Area 3). We will also address how ML approaches related to sensor compression and low energy AI hardware can be used for efficient data acquisition (Focal Area 1). Science Challenge: We will focus on the coupled water cycle and carbon cycle processes in terrestrial ecosystems and terrestrial-aquatic interfaces. Thus, our approaches will be centered around several data-model integration challenges indicated in EESD strategic plans for two science focus areas: Terrestrial Ecosystem Science and Hydrobiogeochemistry. We can use AI to correct systematic model errors due to biases in either data or model structure/processes. Error patterns in model predictions usually vary by region, model, season etc. But there are systematic patterns in them. e.g., soil moisture tends to be overestimated in the arid western continental United States underestimated in wetter eastern USA; some land surface models tend to underestimate moisture in wet seasons and overestimate in dry seasons. Moreover, the consequences of extreme events (e.g., drought, extreme flooding, storm surges associated with tropical storms, hurricanes) on carbon cycle processes are not well represented in ecosystem and Earth system models. Redox-sensitive processes (e.g., rapid oxidation/reduction of iron and other redox-sensitive elements in soil microsites subjected to fluctuated hydrology) in terrestrial-aquatic interfaces further challenge model predictions of hot-spots (and hot-moments) due to poor understanding of underlying mechanisms. Thus, AI/ML approaches can be used to learn patterns in the data and model errors and use them to build model equations and correct process-based model errors.

Thermal Transport and Mechanical Stress Mapping of a Compression Bonded GaN/Diamond Interface for Vertical Power Devices

Bonding diamond to the back side of gallium nitride (GaN) electronics has been shown to improve thermal management in lateral devices; however, engineering challenges remain with the bonding process and characterizing the bond quality for vertical device architectures. Here, in this study, integration of these two materials is achieved by room-temperature compression bonding centimeter-scale GaN and a diamond die via an intermetallic bonding layer of Ti/Au. Recent attempts at GaN/diamond bonding have utilized a modified surface activation bonding (SAB) method, which requires Ar fast atom bombardment immediately followed by bonding within the same tool under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions. The method presented here does not require a dedicated SAB tool yet still achieves bonding via a room-temperature metal–metal compression process. Imaging of the buried interface and the total bonding area is achieved via transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and confocal acoustic scanning microscopy (C-SAM), respectively. The thermal transport quality of the bond is extracted from spatially resolved frequency-domain thermoreflectance (FDTR) with the bonded areas boasting a thermal boundary conductance of >100 MW/m 2 ·K. Additionally, Raman maps of GaN near the GaN–diamond interface reveal a low level of compressive stress, <80 MPa, in well-bonded regions. FDTR and Raman were coutilized to map these buried interfaces and revealed some poor thermally bonded areas bordered by high-stress regions, highlighting the importance of spatial sampling for a complete picture of bond quality. Overall, this work demonstrates a novel method for thermal management in vertical GaN devices that maintains low intrinsic stresses while boasting high thermal boundary conductances.

Identification of the optimal carbon fiber shape for cost-specific compressive performance

We report carbon fiber composites offer superior mechanical performance compared to nearly all other useful materials for the design of structures. However, for cost-driven industries, such as with the wind energy and vehicle industries, the cost of commercial carbon fiber materials is often prohibitive for their usage compared to alternatives. This paper develops an approach to optimize fiber geometries for use in carbon fiber reinforced polymers to increase the compressive strength per unit cost. Compressive strength is a composite property that depends on the fiber, matrix, and interface, and an exact analytic expression does not exist that can accurately represent these complicated relationships. The approach taken instead is to use a weighted summation between the fiber cross-sectional area moment of inertia and perimeter as a proxy for compressive strength, with different weightings explored within the paper. Analyses are performed to identify optimal fiber geometries that increase the cost-specific compressive strength based on various assumptions and desired fiber volume fraction. Robust optimal shapes are identified which outperform circular fibers due to increases in area moment of inertia and perimeter, as well as decreases in carbon fiber processing costs.

Effect of cell compression on the performance and the structure of proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer (PEMWE) assembly

Here, in the field of water electrolysis, the proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer (PEMWE) is currently the most advanced technology for producing hydrogen without emitting CO 2 . Although PEMWE plants are already in operation, further research is needed to improve cell efficiency and reduce the use of rare materials, such as iridium oxide catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). One of the main causes of performance loss in PEMWE is the relatively low electric conductivity of the porous transport layer (PTL) and of the anode catalyst layer, which results in ohmic losses and low catalyst utilization during high current density operation. The objective of this study is to investigate how optimization of the PTL and electrode interface can increase the cell performance. To this end, we tested different cell assemblies using fibrous and sintered PTLs, decreasing membrane thickness, reducing iridium loading, and inserting a microporous layer to increase contact surface area. Electrochemical characterization of each cell configuration was systematically performed at various compression levels as the pressure is a crucial parameter influencing the electrode/PTL contact area. In parallel, X-ray microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) was employed to investigate the effects of cell hydration and compression on the structure of PEMWE components. This study combining electrochemistry and micro-CT imaging presents how optimizing the electrode/PTL contact surface area, minimizes ohmic losses, and enables PEMWE operation with low iridium loading at high current densities.

Automated identification of deformation twin systems in Mg WE43 from SEM DIC

In this study, the application of machine learning and computer vision approaches to microscale deformation data for the automated identification of deformation twinning systems, and their associated twin area, is introduced. Deformation data was obtained during in-situ SEM compression testing of a WE43 Mg alloy using digital image correlation (DIC) modified for use with electron microscopy. A 5.7 mm × 3.4 mm area of interest was analyzed, generating ~100 million data points of deformation. Experimental twin trace directions were determined by applying k-means clustering, morphological thinning, and Hough transforms to the deformation data. The identification of deformation twinning was achieved by consideration of the twin trace direction, its strain value, and its evolution. The deformation map was divided into areas corresponding to individual active twin systems, enabling the analysis of microstructure dependence of deformation behavior and twinning activity. The performance of the proposed twinning identification approach was evaluated by accuracy, precision, and sensitivity metrics. The effect of the tuning parameters used in the algorithm on the performance is also discussed.

Prediction of an alternative high-pressure route to polymeric carbon dioxide as a metastable energetic material

The use of pressure to obtain new materials that can be recovered under ambient conditions is a central problem in high-pressure physics. Despite decades of research, this goal has only been achieved in the laboratory for a few notable examples, such as diamond and cubic boron nitride. An area of significant interest is the transformation under compression of light-element molecular compounds to extended covalent-bonded (polymeric) solids. Among them, CO 2 has been extensively studied because of its status as a prototypical simple molecular system with a rich phase diagram and due to its fundamental role in Earth’s physics and chemistry. One of its polymeric crystalline phases, accessible at extreme pressures and temperatures, has been recently quenched to ambient pressure, but below room temperature. Here we report ab initio calculations predicting that isothermal compression of a carbon monoxide and oxygen mixture (CO+O 2 ), rather than the compound CO 2 , lowers the onset of C-polymerization at room temperature from ~ 118 GPa to ~ 7 GPa (complete by ~ 23 GPa). Moreover, it leads to the formation of an intrinsically different polymer with enhanced metastability. We predict that this dense phase is an energetic material which can potentially be recovered to ambient pressure and temperature.
