To develop an efficient method to achieve fast discharge/charge ability and long-cycle life for NCM cathodes, is still an urgent and challenging problem for further effectively improving the overall performance of lithium ion battery (LIB). Herein, NCM523 uniformly modified by Pr 6 O 11...

CoNi alloys are excellent magnetic microwave absorption materials, and the influence of various structures on performance is very significant, especially chains versus particles. Herein, a magnetic field-induced solvothermal method was applied to prepare hierarchical CoNi chains, and without the...

The Zn 3 V 3 O 8 @N-graphene (ZnVO@NG) hybrid was successfully prepared by hydrothermal method as anode material for lithium-ion Batteries (LIBs). The introduced N-graphene (NG) was used as a conductive carbonaceous plat for encapsulating Zn 3 V 3 O 8 (ZnVO) flowers due to good mechanical...

Analysing the vertical distribution of nutrient salts and estimating the total mass of lake nutrients is helpful for the management of lake nutrient status and the formulation of drainage standards in basins. However, studies on nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in lakes have focused on obtaining...

We consider takeover bidding in a Cournot oligopoly when firms have private information concerning the synergy effect of merging with a takeover target. Two auction rules are considered: standard first-price and profit-share auctions, supplemented by entry fees. Since non-merged firms benefit...

The literature on R&D contests implicitly assumes that contestants submit their innovation regardless of its value. This ignores a potential adverse selection problem. The present article analyzes the procurement of innovations when the procurer cannot commit himself to never bargain with...

In a recurring auction early bids may reveal bidders' types, which in turn affects bidding in later auctions. Bidders take this into account and may bid in a way that conceals their private information until the last auction is played. The present paper analyzes the equilibrium of a sequence of...
