Saying goodbye to Alex
The group is saying goodbye to Alex Huynh, who graduated last week. Alex did a double major in ChemE and MechE and was a significant contributor to the team. Alex built electrolyzer and fuel cell test stands, built LabView codes to automate them and software to automate data analysis. His work will result in several […]
Devashish, Prof. Zenyuk and friends from USC travel to APS at Argonne Lab for tomography beamtime
Prof. Zenyuk, Devashish and our friends from University of South Carolina (USC): Vatch, Boom and Joe travel to Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Lab (ANL) to image electrolyzers and batteries. This time Devashish machined 5 hardware cells for high-throughput. The beamtime went great and all are recovering from sleepless nights!
Prof. Zenyuk travels to Advanced Energy Storage third conference Scialog series held November 14-17, 2019
