Influence of catalyst ink mixing procedures on catalyst layer properties and in-situ PEMFC performance by Jacobs, Clayton Jeffrey

“…Overall, fuel cell performance is not significantly affected by the mixing step however; mixing does have an observable impact on catalyst layer formulation. Generally, when optimizing membrane electrode assembly fabrication, mixing parameters should be carefully chosen. …”

End-to-End Autonomous Quadcopter using Reinforcement Learning by Chawa, Mohamed Marwan

“…One of the key challenges in generalizing RL to different quadcopter platforms is the variation in physical parameters and dynamics. Addressing this challenge will require developing RL algorithms that can either adapt to these variations online or learn from a diverse set of training environments. …”
