Next generation batteries must achieve significant reductions in cost (for stationary energy storage) or weight (for electrified transportation). In this effort, the chemistry of new battery materials has received the most attention, but the physics of convection, electromigration, and phase transformations are also critical to understand and exploit for engineering ...
In 2010, Megan Prelinger and collaborators Rick Prelinger and Stacy Kozakavich were invited by the Exploratorium to develop exhibits for the Museum's planned Bay Observatory gallery. The Bay Observatory opened to the public in 2013, featuring dozens of research-based exhibits that combine the Museum's legacy imperative to integrate art and ...
