There are many reviews on mathematical models for hthium ion batteries. Botte et al. presented an extensive review on mathematical modeling of rechargeable lithium batteries. A review of mathematical models of lithium and nickel battery systems is discussed in hterature." " Experimental developments in the field can be found in a recent review article that describes new solutions, new measurement procedures and new materials for Li-ion batteries. " Apart from the enormous body of work on modehng of Li-ion batteries, efforts have also been made in making these continuum models more computationally efficient to simulate." Computationally efficient models can not only be used to predict battery behavior but can also be used in situations where real-time parameter estimation is needed, for example, situations where super accurate determination of State of Health (SOH) of a battery is critical, adding a new dimension to the capabilities of continuum models. 

In future work, the authors plan to conduct further analyses of MEA degradation phenomena and devise measures for suppressing degradation, in order to promote the application of fuel cells to production vehicles. Additionally, efforts will also be made to develop new or substitute materials and to develop operating methods that are effective in inhibiting degradation. 

Because variations in accurate isotope ratio measurements typically concern only a few parts per 1000 by mass and there are no universal absolute ratios, it is necessary to define some standards. For this purpose, samples of standard substances are produced and made available at two major centers IAEA (International Atomic Energy Authority, U.K.) and NIST (National Institute for Standards and Technology, U.S.). Standards from other sources are also available. These primary standards can be used as such, or alternative standards can be employed if the primary ones are not available. However, any alternative standards need to be related accurately to the primary ones (see formulae below). For example, the material PDB (PeeDee belemnite), used particularly as a standard for the ratio of isotopes, is no longer readily available, and a new standard, VPDB,...
