Modeling, theory and analysis

Analysis, prediction and understanding of various membrane properties (hydration, transport, mechanical) in relation to their chemical and structural features enabled by existing data libraries to help and guide new data collection and membrane modeling

Modeling of membrane/MEA chemical degradation and mechanical failure as well as their coupling using synergistic chemical-mechanical models validated by experimental data for durability assesment and analysis

Simulating the operation of various fuel-cell components and cells with a focus on transport phenomena and reaction kinetics.
