Evaluation of a CIDI pre-transmission parallel hybrid drivetrain with CVT.

Description: Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) is the lead laboratory for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing and technology validation for the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Advanced Automotive Technologies (DOE OAAT). In this role, ANL contributes to DOE OAAT goals by setting technical targets and evaluating new technologies in a vehicle systems context, with a focus on hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) technology. ANL employs a unique integrated process based on powerful simulation tools and experiment… more

Study of metal dusting phenomenon and development of materials resistant to metal dusting.

Description: The deposition of carbon from carbonaceous gaseous environments is prevalent in many chemical and petrochemical processes such as reforming systems, syngas production systems, iron reduction plants, and others. One of the major consequences of carbon deposition is the degradation of structural materials by a phenomenon known as metal dusting. There are two major issues of importance in metal dusting. First is formation of carbon and subsequent deposition of carbon on metallic materials. Second … more

Defect Structure and Evolution in Silicon Carbide Irradiated to 1 dpa-SiC at 1100 C

Description: Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), swelling measurements, isochronal annealing, and thermal diffusivity testing were used to characterize the effects of radiation damage in SiC. Together, these techniques provided a comprehensive set of tools for observing and characterizing the structure and evolution of radiation-induced defects in SiC as a function of irradiation temperature and dose. In this study, two types of dense, crystalline, monolithic SiC were subjected to irradiation doses up t… more

Determination of Constraint-Modified J-R Curves for Carbon Steel Storage Tanks

Description: The fracture toughness testing of A285 carbon steel storage tank material was carried out. A series of single edge-notched bend (SENB) specimens with various constraint levels were used. The variation of crack tip constraint was achieved by changing the ratio of the initial notch length to the specimen depth. The test data show that the J-R curves are specimen-dependent, which is known as the constraint effect. A two-parameter fracture methodology is adopted to construct a constraint-modified J… more

Alternate Sorbents for the Pretreatment of Tank Waste

Description: Several different types of sorbents have been synthesized and submitted to WSRC for testing in the removal of Sr and several actinides from Savannah River nuclear waste solutions. Results of screening tests at the Savannah River Site showed that the nonatitanate samples exhibited as good, or better, performance than the monosodium titanate samples proposed for the treatment process.
