New high-performance cathode materials for low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells

Green Car Congress

Korea), Georgia Institute of Technology, and Dong-Eui University (S. The researchers suggested that a more detailed understanding of the mechanistic details may help the rational design of better double-perovskite cathode materials for a new generation of high-performance SOFCs with enhanced durability. GDC (Ln = Pr and Nd) cathode.

UT Austin to lead $58M study of methane hydrate in Gulf of Mexico; $41M from DOE

Green Car Congress

The grant, one of the largest ever awarded to the university, will allow researchers to advance the scientific understanding of naturally occurring methane hydrate so that its resource potential and environmental implications can be fully understood. That is more than 250 times the amount of natural gas used in the United States in 2013.

This Robot Could Be the Key to Helping People With Disabilities

Cars That Think

It was a PR2 , from the robotics company Willow Garage, and Georgia Tech robotics professor Charlie Kemp was demonstrating how the PR2 was able to locate a person and bring them a bottle of medicine. It was the same for Kemp at Georgia Tech—a robot as impractical as the PR2 could never have a direct impact outside of a research context.
