Metal Oxides in Batteries addresses the development of high-performance electrode and electrolyte materials essential for next-generation energy storage devices. With increasing demand for efficient, stable, and sustainable batteries, this reference fills the need for a comprehensive analysis of metal oxides-based materials and their roles in various battery chemistries. The book covers fundamental and applied aspects of metal oxides, including insertion and conversion type anodes, cathodes, catalysts for metal-air batteries, and electrolytes for solid-state batteries. It also discusses doping, coating, three-dimensional structuring, and nanocrystallization strategies to optimize performance. This book will be of interest to materials scientists, inorganic chemists, electrochemists, and industry researchers working with the synthesis, design, and application of metal oxide materials for batteries.Describes design principles and optimization strategies for metal oxide materials for rechargeable batteriesReviews metal oxides in various battery types, including Li-ion, Na-ion, K-ion, and metal-airExplains catalytic roles and electrolyte applications of metal oxides in batteries

Physics of Fluid Flow and Transport in Unconventional Reservoir Rocks

Understanding and predicting fluid flow in hydrocarbon shale and other non-conventional reservoir rocks

Oil and natural gas reservoirs found in shale and other tight and ultra-tight porous rocks have become increasingly important sources of energy in both North America and East Asia. As a result, extensive research in recent decades has focused on the mechanisms of fluid transfer within these reservoirs, which have complex pore networks at multiple scales. Continued research into these important energy sources requires detailed knowledge of the emerging theoretical and computational developments in this field.

Following a multidisciplinary approach that combines engineering, geosciences and rock physics, Physics of Fluid Flow and Transport in Unconventional Reservoir Rocks provides both academic and industrial readers with a thorough grounding in this cutting-edge area of rock geology, combining an explanation of the underlying theories and models with practical applications in the field.

Readers will also find:

An introduction to the digital modeling of rocks Detailed treatment of digital rock physics, including decline curve analysis and non-Darcy flow Solutions for difficult-to-acquire measurements of key petrophysical characteristics such as shale wettability, effective permeability, stress sensitivity, and sweet spots

Physics of Fluid Flow and Transport in Unconventional Reservoir Rocks is a fundamental resource for academic and industrial researchers in hydrocarbon exploration, fluid flow, and rock physics, as well as professionals in related fields.
