  受www.788-sb.com材料学院邀请,英国萨里大学资深讲师蔡琼博士于7月5日来访,进行参观与学术交流,并在3号教学楼341作题为“Towards multiscale modelling for battery materials design”的学术报告。材料学院吴川教授主持本次学术报告会。

  蔡琼博士介绍了其研究团队在电池材料的多尺度模型的设计与应用上的研究。主要包括以下两个方面:一是通过分子建模的方法从原子尺度上揭示了钠离子在多孔碳材料中的存储行为,二是将三维微米尺度模型用于三维电极材料的设计,并进一步分析了材料的多重物理量和化学/电化学性能。

  蔡琼博士研究团队的工作主要集中于利用量化计算来辅助设计电极材料,以及对电池内部的传质等问题进行模型预测,与同学们的基础性研究工作相辅相成,拓宽了同学们的研究思路。与会师生还就报告中的建模、边界条件、适用性等感兴趣的问题进行了深入又热烈地讨论,报告在师生们热烈的掌声中圆满结束。

  

蔡琼博士简介:

  Dr Qiong Cai was trained in materials science and engineering at Tsinghua University (China) and received her MEng degree in 2003. She went on to complete a PhD in 2007, at the University of Edinburgh (UK), with an overseas research scholarship from Universities UK. Between 2007 and 2012 she was a research associate at Imperial College London where she led the Modelling and Simulation workpackage within a four-year EU FP7 funded project. She became a lecturer in Department of Chemical and Process Engineering at University of Surrey in 2012 and was promoted to senior lecturer and Director of Postgraduate Research in 2016. She has been researching actively at the interface of materials science and electrochemical engineering. Her current research focuses on multi-scale modeling and materials design for energy conversion and storage. She is the PI of three EPSRC (Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council) funded projects on Na-ion batteries and polymer membrane fuel cells. She is also the Co-I of a newly funded £1.2 million project from EPSRC on Na-ion batteries, and the Co-I of a Surrey-NPL (National Physical Laboratory) PhD studentship on lithium air batteries. She has supervised 5 postdocs and currently is supervising 5 PhD students. She is on the Scientific Board of the H2FC SUPERGEN Hub, the Scientific Board of the Energy Storage SUPERGEN Hub, and a member of the EPRSC peer review college. She has also been an active referee for a number of international journals including Journal of Power Sources, Electrochimica Acta, International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, etc.
