From the overall framework of battery development, the battery structures have not received enough attention compared to the chemical components in batteries. The mechanical-electrochemical coupling behavior is a starting point for investigation on battery structures and the subsequent battery design. This perspective systematically reviews the efforts on the mechanics-based design for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Two typical types of mechanics-based LIB designs, namely the design at the preparation stage and that at the cycling stage, have been discussed, respectively. The former systemizes the structure design of multiscale battery components from the particle level to the cell level. The latter focuses on the external mechanics-related control, including external pressures and charge-discharge protocols, of in-service LIBs. Moreover, the general problems currently being faced in the mechanics-based LIB design are summarized, followed by the outlook of possible solutions.

Computing Entropy for Long-Chain Alkanes Using Linear Regression: Application to Hydroisomerization.
Entropy (Basel)

Engineering Thermodynamics, Process & Energy Department, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Delft University of Technology, Leeghwaterstraat 39, 2628 CB Delft, The Netherlands.
Entropies for alkane isomers longer than C are computed using our recently developed linear regression model for thermochemical properties which is based on second-order group contributions. The computed entropies show excellent agreement with experimental data and data from Scott's tables which are obtained from a statistical mechanics-based correlation. Entropy production and heat input are calculated for the hydroisomerization of C isomers in various zeolites (FAU-, ITQ-29-, BEA-, MEL-, MFI-, MTW-, and MRE-types) at 500 K at chemical equilibrium.

Paper crafts, such as origami and kirigami, have become an interdisciplinary research theme transportable from art to science, and further to engineering. Kirigami-inspired architectural design strategies allow the establishment of three-dimensional (3D) mechanical linkages with unprecedented mechanical properties. Herein, we report a crystalline zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), displaying folding mechanics based on a kirigami tessellation, originated from the double-corrugation surface (DCS) pattern.

Accurate quantum mechanics based predictions of property trends are so important for material design and discovery that even inexpensive approximate methods are valuable. We use the alchemical integral transform to study multi-electron atoms and to gain a better understanding of the approximately quadratic behavior of energy differences between iso-electronic atoms in their nuclear charges. Based on this, we arrive at the following simple analytical estimate of energy differences between any two iso-electronic atoms, ΔE≈-(1+2γNe-1)ΔZZ̄.
