The challenge of providing adequate power on an indefinite basis without causing long-term damage to the environment requires a versatile means of energy conversion and storage. As such, electrical energy storage is becoming more vital today than at any time in human history. Electrochemical systems, such as batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, and photoelectrochemical cells, can help meet this objective. Future generations of rechargeable lithium batteries will be required to power portable electronic devices, store electricity from renewable sources, and serve as a vital component to pursuing electric mobility in the future to reduce fossil fuel demand and mitigate environmental issues....
Several topics ranging from crystalline ionic conductors, glasses, polymeric materials to proton conductors are discussed. Characterization techniques such as NMR and XPS and synthesis techniques such as sol-gel are emphasized. Some coverage of superconductors is also included. The proceedings of such an interdisciplinary conference would not be complete without a discussion on applications. Results based on the fabrication of fuel cells, solid state batteries, sensors and electrochromic displays are therefore presented.
"The topics covered in this volume include the materials aspect of crystalline and composite electrolytes, polymers, and glasses. Twenty-one invited and forty-five contributed papers emphasize ionic transport, dielectric studies, electronic and mixed conductors, proton conductors, cathode materials, electrochromism, experimental techniques and application of solid state ionic materials in batteries, fuel cells, electrochromic displays and sensors."--Publisher's website.
This volume illustrates the technological advances made in recent years in the development of battery and other energy storage systems. Discussions of present and near future battery technologies are included as well as emerging energy technologies that have the potential to impact on the portable electronics industry in the long term.

This book highlights the opportunities and the challenges of introducing hydrogen as alternative transport fuel from an economic, technical and environmental point of view. Through its multi-disciplinary approach the book provides researchers, decision makers and policy makers with a solid and wide-ranging knowledge base concerning the hydrogen economy.
Falling Liquid Films gives a detailed review of state-of-the-art theoretical, analytical and numerical methodologies, for the analysis of dissipative wave dynamics and pattern formation on the surface of a film falling down a planar inclined substrate. This prototype is an open-flow hydrodynamic instability, that represents an excellent paradigm for the study of complexity in active nonlinear media with energy supply, dissipation and dispersion. It will also be of use for a more general understanding of specific events characterizing the transition to spatio-temporal chaos and weak/dissipative turbulence. Particular emphasis is given to low-dimensional approximations for such flows through a...
