Unrenewable Cells

2.3K
In humans, the photoreceptor cells of the eye and sensory hair cells of the ear lack stem cells. These cells are thus unrenewable and cannot be replaced when they are damaged or destroyed.
Photoreceptors
The retina is composed of several layers and contains specialized cells called photoreceptors. The photoreceptors (rods and cones) change their membrane potential when stimulated by light energy. There are two types of photoreceptors—rods and cones—which differ in the shape of...

A battery is a galvanic cell that is used as a source of electrical power for specific applications. Modern batteries exist in a multitude of forms to accommodate various applications, from tiny button batteries such as those that power wristwatches to the very large batteries used to supply backup energy to municipal power grids. Some batteries are designed for single-use applications and cannot be recharged (primary cells), while others are based on conveniently reversible cell reactions that...

Charging Conductors By Induction

7.9K
The Earth is a good conductor of electricity, and it is so big that it can be considered an infinite source or sink of charges. It can easily exchange charges with any matter.
Generally, conductors like metals do not allow any excess charge to be present on them. Any excess charge added to metals easily flows away, for example, when a metal is placed on the Earth. This process is called earthing.
However, conductors can be charged by a process called induction. For example, consider charging a...

Charge and Current

Electric charge is the most fundamental quantity in an electric circuit. The effects of electric charge are encountered daily, such as when a wool sweater sticks to the human body or when a person receives a shock while walking on a carpet.
Charge is an inherent property of the atomic particles that make up matter and is measured in units called coulombs (C). Matter is composed of atoms, each consisting of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Electrons have a negative charge (-e), while protons...

Continuous Charge Distributions

6.9K
Imagine a bucket of water. It contains many molecules, of the order of 1026 molecules. Thus, although it contains discrete elements (molecules) at the microscopic level, macroscopically, it can be considered continuous. Small volume elements of water, infinitesimal compared to the bulk of the bucket's volume, still contain many molecules. Under this framework, quantized matter is approximated as continuous for practical purposes.
The electric charge can also be subjected to an analogical...

Charge on a Conductor01:26

Charge on a Conductor

4.5K
An interesting property of a conductor in static equilibrium is that extra charges on the conductor end up on its outer surface, regardless of where they originate. Consider a hollow metallic conductor with a uniform surface charge density. Since the conductor itself is in electrostatic equilibrium, there should not be any electric field inside the conductor. Now, assume a Gaussian surface enclosing the hollow portion. Applying Gauss's law, the inner surface of the hollow conductor will not...

Area of Science:

  • Energy Systems Engineering
  • Transportation Science
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • Growing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) necessitates efficient charging strategies.
  • Ride-sharing services are transitioning to 100% electric fleets.
  • Integrating renewable energy for EV charging presents challenges due to intermittency.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a mechanism for maximizing renewable-based EV charging in ride-sharing fleets.
  • To ensure charging strategies do not compromise ride-sharing service quality.
  • To investigate the impact of user willingness to ride-share on charging and service quality.

Main Methods:

  • A game-theoretic approach is employed, involving a power utility and a ride-sharing platform.
  • A novel mechanism incentivizes EV charging during high renewable generation periods.
  • A 'charge request' concept is introduced, managed through bargaining for Nash equilibria.

Main Results:

  • The proposed mechanism successfully shifts EV charging to periods of high renewable energy generation.
  • The strategy effectively adapts to intermittent renewable power sources.
  • Minimal impact on the overall quality of ride-sharing services is demonstrated.

Conclusions:

  • Optimized EV charging is achievable for ride-sharing fleets using renewable energy.
  • Game-theoretic bargaining can align utility incentives with platform operations.
