Cost, volumetric energy density, and fast-charging projections of Na-ion and Li-ion batteries from a European perspective

This study employs a multi-objective optimization framework to demonstrate that while European-manufactured Na-ion batteries can achieve cost parity with LiFePO4 batteries, they currently lag in volumetric energy density and charging speed, necessitating further material cost reductions or significant lithium price increases to become competitively superior, all while facing an 18–27% cost premium for domestic production compared to Chinese imports.

Circulatory Load-sharing Redundancy for Resource Single Point of Failure in Automated Manufacturing Systems Using Petri Nets

This paper proposes a Petri net-based circular load-sharing redundancy technique that enhances the resilience of automated manufacturing systems to single resource failures by dynamically redistributing tasks among neighboring resources in a circle, thereby achieving high recovery efficiency without requiring additional backup resources or operational loss.
