The 2nd JACI / GSC Symposium (The
13th GSC Symposium)

<Title>
"Modeling the voltage of Li-ion cell
with BDS ® and its allocation for estimation of anodic over-voltage -
Toward high efficient battery system for HEV or EV (1) -" |
<Comments>
Unlike the 15-min. PowerPoint presentation at other conferences, this
Poster Session felt challenging in terms of explaning to walking-by
audience about the highlights shortly in 3 min. or so. Also I would
like to emphasize that many people from differenrent fields offered me
sound advice for the future research, which makes me count this
symposium as one of the most memorable events in my college life. |

<Comments>
It was totally perplexing to attend this Chemistry Conference with my
Modeling contents looking somewhat unsuitable, however, it turned out
to be far more fruitful than expected. Every single moment was
stimulating enough to broaden my view, and I ended up being excited to
answering questions or listening to unique comments from the audience.

"Valuation of environmental cost
reduction by employing PHEV technology for regional CDM - Case study

<Comments>
Being my first foreign language presentation, it was an absolutely new
experience. A good exposure from foreign academia to the foreign
industry. |

Diesel HEV team wins the outstanding tech. paper
award from JSAE on 23th April, 2013

The outstanding
technical paper award |

Toshitaka Nakamura
Hiromu
Nakano
Jin Kusaka |
Mr. Toshitaka
Nakamura who was graduated
from M.S. degree of graduate school, Waseda university on March, 2012
and is now
a researcher of JX
Nippon Oil & Energy Corporation,
Mr. Hiromu Nakano who is now a M.S. 2nd student and professor Jin
Kusaka will get “ the outstanding technical paper award from JSAE” on 23th May, 2013 at
Yokohama. Today is the press release day from JSAE.
The reasons
for this is
(1)
Modeling on transport phenomena encountered in a Lithium ion battery
coupled
with electrochemical reactions
(2)
Predicting various over voltages and energy conversion efficiency of
charge and
discharge periods by using the transport model mentioned above.
(3)
The components of the battery, a motor, vehicle body size are optimized
by
using the Particle Swarm Objective(PSO) algorithm.
The
HEV team was established in 2010 by Mr. H. Yano who is now a researcher
of HONDA.
The authors
would like to express their
thanks to Waseda university professors Yasuhiro Daisho to be a
recommender and Yushi
Kamiya for his advices for modeling on a PM
motor.
Old boys and girls of Saito, Daisho, Kusaka and Kamiya laboratories
will get together to see the poster presentation at
HITO-TO-KURUMA-NO-TECHNOLOGY-TEN held in 22-24th May, Yokohama.

Professor Ingemar Denbratt got an award from VREF at
Chalmers Hus in Gothenburg for his great contribution of research
activity of mobility energy conversion system. After the ceremony,
three peofessors have presentations associated with environmentally
friendly engines and vehicles. Professor emeritus, Jerzy Chomiak also
came to the ceremony to give us a lecture. Acctually, it was a good
conference. |
