Dr. Caitlin Parke |
Education
Research Interests: My current work involves the development of 1D and reduced-order models for high energy density lithium-based batteries. My previous research combined physics-based modeling, applied mathematics, and data science for analysis of lithium sulfur batteries and their reaction mechanism. |
Dr. Keith Duncan | Education
Research Interests: Current research involves developing electrochemical models for batteries. Previous research activity was mostly in analytical modeling of solid-oxide fuel cell performance, material development for SOFC electrodes and electrolytes, solid-state sensors, solid-state gas separation membranes, optimization of renewable energy systems, and spectroscopic characterization of fire-debris. |
Dr. Taeho Jung | Education
Research Interests: My current research focuses on solid-state lithium-metal-battery modelling. My previous research involved the treatment of diffusion in ion-exchange media based on a novel theoretical framework called the core-potential theory. |
