Technologies are described that are directed to cost-effective and safe deployment of propane as a refrigerant for heat pump water heaters.

This invention presents an integrated strategy to reduce end-user electricity costs and grid carbon emissions by efficiently utilizing Distributed Energy Resources (DER) and grid-scale electrical energy storage systems, such as batteries.

This technology overcomes the limitations of carbon materials like Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) and graphene in carbon dioxide reduction. These materials show significant inactivity in electrochemical carbon dioxide (Na-CO2)reduction applications.

The invention aims to reduce the cost, weight and volume of existing on-board electric vehicle chargers by integrating power electronic converters of the chargers with the traction inverter.

A human-in-the-loop machine learning (hML) technology potentially enhances experimental workflows by integrating human expertise with AI automation.

This work seeks to alter the interface condition through thermal history modification, deposition energy density, and interface surface preparation to prevent interface cracking.

Additive manufacturing (AM) enables the incremental buildup of monolithic components with a variety of materials, and material deposition locations.

The traditional window installation process involves many steps. These are becoming even more complex with newer construction requirements such as installation of windows over exterior continuous insulation walls. 

Quantifying tool wear is historically challenging task due to variable human interpretation.  This capture system will allow for an entire side and the complete end of the cutting tool to be analyzed.

New demands in electric vehicles have resulted in design changes for the power electronic components such as the capacitor to incur lower volume, higher operating temperatures, and dielectric properties (high dielectric permittivity and high electrical breakdown strengths).
