Visitors: We are more than glad to hold visits from K-12 students.

04/16/2024: Congratulations on Xiang's first Advanced Science paper! In this paper, we initiated our research journey to battery manufacturing regarding the binder gradient. 

04/10/2024: Congratulations on Xudong's second prestigious AEM paper! In this paper, we proposed a phase-separation based model which can basically describe the electrochemical behaviors of the batteries upon various charging/discharging rates.

03/27/2024: Congratulations on Jiani's successful defense of her Ph.D. thesis work! Jiani started her Ph.D. during pandemic and she overcome so many challenges and finally finished her Ph.D. We wish her every success in her future endeavors!

02/20/2024: Congratulations Xijun Tan will join our group in the next Fall. Welcome Xijun!

12/12/2023: A very interestingly conceived topic by combining LFP and NMC particle together to mitigate the volume change during cycling for solid state batteries has been accepted by the prestigious energy journal -- Nano Energy. This work is a quick study of Chunhao when he was still a postdoc at our group. It turned out to be a very excellent quaility paper. Congratulations Chunhao!

12/07/2023: A new paper on describing lithium plating behavior by considering detailed inner cell structure has been directly accepted (without any revision) by the prestigious energy journal -- Energy and Environmental Materials (IF=15.1). This work is a collaboration with Binghe's group. Congratulations!

11/30/2023: Our group name has been changed to "Energy Mechanics and Sustainability Laboratory" (EMSLab)! With this new name, the group has entered a transformative stage,  and gained the momentum needed to propel our group forward! Go EMSLaber!

10/08/2023: Congratulations! Jun is included in the World Top 2% Scientist List in both Single year (2023) and Career (all years) based on citations.

(Details: https://elsevier.digitalcommonsdata.com/datasets/btchxktzyw/6)

Jun is ranked as World Top 0.190% and 0.185% Scientist in fields of Mechanical Engineering & Transports, and Energy, respectively.

Also, our previous Ph.D. student, Prof. Binghe Liu is also included in the World Top 2% Scientist List in Single year (2023), congratulations Binghe!

08/27/2023: VESL Group's new website has bee established.
