Influence of graphene wrapped-cerium oxide coating on spherical LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 particles as cathode in high-voltage lithium-ion batteries by Zawar Alam Qureshi (17545743)

“…DSC analysis elucidate that the ceria coating helps to suppress the adverse reactions at the electrode/electrolyte interface and reduce the Mn3+ dissolution due to the Jahn Teller effect, increasing cell cyclability. The graphene wrapping reduces material aggregation and provides conductive pathways that significantly improve the electrochemical performance of the LNMO cathode. …”

Mechanical Efficiency at Different Exercise Intensities Among Adolescent Boys With Different Body Fat Levels by Georges Jabbour (754884)

“…These findings suggest that excess in body weight exerts a negative effect on ME at a low intensity by increasing energy consumption for obese and overweight adolescent boys, while at higher intensities (75%HRmax and VO_2peak) the lower ME could be better explained by the lower power output and catecholamine responses that were attenuated among obese and overweight adolescent boys.…”
