CAREER: An Integrated Research and Education on Functionally Graded Solid Oxide Fuel Cells: Modeling and ExperimentsAbstractThis research is concerned with electrochemical and mechanical performances of solid oxide fuel cells. One promising approach for improving SOFC performance is the use of functionally graded electrodes rather than purely monolithic or composite electrodes. This program will address three-dimensional transient thermal fracture analysis of functionally graded SOFCs using cohesive zone models and interaction integrals along with stochastic fracture modeling and sensitivity analysis. Fracture modeling will be validated with SOFC experiments. The program will be carried out in such a manner that the excitement of fuel cell research will be shared with students from high school through graduate school, and fuel cell researchers at the University of Connecticut and throughout the world. Research findings will be utilized in two outreach programs, e.g. the da Vinci Workshop and Engineering 2000, which are existing on-campus summer enrichment programs for New England middle and high school math-science teachers and high school students, respectively.

职业：功能梯度固体氧化物燃料电池的综合研究与教育：建模与实验摘要本研究主要关注固体氧化物燃料电池的电化学和机械性能。改善SOFC性能的一种有前途的方法是使用功能梯度电极而不是纯单片或复合电极。该计划将解决三维瞬态热断裂分析的功能梯度固体氧化物燃料电池使用凝聚区模型和相互作用积分沿着与随机断裂建模和敏感性分析。断裂模型将与SOFC实验进行验证。该计划将以这样一种方式进行，即燃料电池研究的兴奋将与高中到研究生院的学生以及康涅狄格大学和世界各地的燃料电池研究人员分享。研究结果将被用于两个推广计划，如达芬奇研讨会和工程2000年，这是现有的校园夏季充实计划新英格兰初中和高中数学科学教师和高中学生，分别。
