Battery game changer: AI identifies key conditions for all-solid-state battery electrolyte materials
National Research Council of Science & Technology
A research team led by Dr. Byungju, Lee at the Computational Science Research Center of the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST, President Sang-Rok Oh) has identified key factors governing lithium ion movement in amorphous solid electrolytes through AI-based atomic simulations. The team analyzed lithium-ion movement by distinguishing it into 'ease of movement between sites' and 'connectivity of movement paths'. They confirmed that overall performance is more significantly influenced by the difficulty of ions moving from one site to the next than by path connectivity.

Fresher premade meals sell faster, NJIT research finds
New Jersey Institute of Technology
Markets follow various display strategies for prepared foods, with many stores making older items more visible so they'll be sold before they spoil. However, a theoretical model created by an NJIT researcher suggests that customers prefer finding the freshest items at the front of the displays.
