Can Electric Vehicle Batteries Go the Distance? - MIT Club of Northern California from Hank Magnuski on Vimeo.

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are storming into the market, driven by consumer interest. Almost all manufacturers have some hybrid or all electric vehicle models or plans for new EVs. But battery costs and performance are limiting range and keeping EV prices high.

Despite the enormous potential of solar power to generate electricity, solar photovoltaic (PV) technology is by far the least utilized renewable energy resource today. We need breakthrough advances in materials to capture and store solar energy so we can economically replace fossil fuels in the next few decades. Prof. Grossman will describe two radically new solar materials and the computational models that led to their discovery.

CEM 2011 - Review of Eddy current analysis Prof Oszkar Biro

CEM 2011 - Review of Eddy current analysis Prof Oszkar Biro This conference provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of research into computational techniques for solving problems in electromagnetics, with focus on aspects and applications of numerical modelling based on these techniques. Both low and high frequency fields will be covered, as well as electromagnetic hazards and EMC. The conference will provide an opportunity for experts in the field, including practising engineers and designers, to meet and exchange information on recent developments in electromagnetic modelling. It will be of interest to academics undertaking research in electromagnetics and to engineers in fields such as telecommunications, propagation and remote sensing, power, defence and transport, where the electromagnetic aspects are crucial. The focus is on an inclusive conference with networking opportunities. The emphasis is on interactive (poster) presentations with plenty of opportunities for informal discussions. Each session will start with invited oral introductory reviews of the relevant topics. 2011-04-12 00:00:00.0 Electronics Channel >> go to webcast>> recommend to friend
