A French research preprint dated October 9 reports that volume changes during cycling fell as cobalt content rose in lithium-cobalt-manganese spinel cathodes.
EIA reported that 130 platforms and rigs had been evacuated or moved by October 8, suspending about 1.3 million barrels of oil and 1.1 billion cubic feet of gas per day.
A Nature Communications study by researchers at UC San Diego and Toyota Research Institute reports that a citric-acid-crosslinked polymer blend can support battery manufacturing and direct recycling in laboratory cells.
Researchers at the universities of Oslo and Xi’an presented a graph neural network for probabilistic power-flow estimates when grid topology changes after line outages. The model outperformed baselines on phase-angle error in two test networks.

Measurement and privacy details
Google Analytics measurement starts only if you allow it. After consent, automatic measurement may cover scrolls, outbound link clicks, downloads, video engagement, site searches and basic form interactions; search terms may be detected from URL parameters. This site’s own code does not send form field values; email redaction in automatic measurement is best-effort, not guaranteed. Our manual page-view event uses a cleaned URL. You can change your choice later. Visits that begin with consent may also send numeric LCP, INP and CLS performance measurements after Analytics loads. A first or later grant starts this on the next page load; withdrawing consent stops these performance reports for this page. The preference cookie lasts six months; advertising measurement and personalization stay off.
