Electrically conducting carbon composites: systems design and information modeling

  • Fibre Composite Materials
  • Published:
Fibre Chemistry Aims and scope

General systems theory is used to break down electrically conducting carbon composites (ECCs) and gas-diffusion substrates (GDTs) in fuel cells as objects for systems design. An information model is proposed for systems design and several general laws are discovered to describe the development ECCs and GDTs as part of their complete lifecycle. Methods are found to optimize systems design technology. Systems design and information modeling are shown to be effective tools for the development of ECCs, including nanocomposites with pre-assigned properties.
