During the metal forming process, which is generally under the coupling effects of the mechanical and thermal fields, materials are elasto-plastically deformed under loading conditions including certain stress, strain (strain rate) and temperature states, thereby the needed shape and the desirable structure of the workpiece are obtained with the tailored microstructure and properties, in such a way to have the unique advantages of high productivity, low cost, green manufacturing, and good performance of the fabricated parts compared with other materials processing and manufacturing technologies such as machining, casting, welding, etc. [pdf]

The technology can be divided into three categories: sensible heat storage (SHS) which stores and releases heat by changing the temperature of the storage material; latent heat storage (LHS) which stores and releases energy through phase change of the material and hence is also called phase change material (PCM)-based TES; and thermochemical energy storage (TCES) which uses reversible sorption and/or chemical reactions to store and release energy.

Two-dimensional (2 D) materials are possible candidates, owing to their unique geometry and physicochemical properties. This Review summarizes the latest advances in the development of 2 D materials for electrochemical energy storage.
Advanced materials play a critical role in enhancing the capacity and extending the cycle life of energy storage devices. High-entropy materials (HEMs) with controlled compositions and simple phase structures have attracted the interest of researchers and have undergone rapid development recently.
Based on to the morphology and thermal energy storage mechanism of PCCs, we focused on three preparation methods: hybrid confinement, encapsulation, and polymerization. Among these methods, hybrid confinement is a facile, cost-effective, and most mature technology, which has been extensively adopted to prepare PCCs.
Rational construction of layered MoS 2 nanostructures (nanotubes, nanosheets, nano-flowers) for morphological control and composite of other carbon-based materials is an effective way to develop high-performance energy storage electrode materials.
His research in energy storage area includes liquid and compressed air energy storage and thermal energy storage based on molten salts, phase change materials, and thermochemical materials. He has published over 550 technical papers with ∼400 in peer-reviewed journals (GS H Index of ∼80) and filed ∼100 patents.
Among the various thermal energy storage methods, phase change materials (PCM)-based latent heat storage is one of the most efficient technologies being actively pursued owing to its operational simplicity and comparable energy storage density .

Magnesium started to be investigated as a means to store hydrogen around 50 years ago, since it has the advantage of fulfilling the “natural” targets of (i) high abundance (2% of earth surface composition and virtually unlimited in sea water), (ii) non toxicity and (iii) relative safety of operation as compared to other light elements and their hydrides that quickly and exothermically oxidize in air.
