Embodiments disclosed herein include a method for field adjusting calibrating factors of a plurality of RF impedance matches for control of a plurality of plasma chambers. In an embodiment, the method comprises collecting and storing in a memory data from operation of the plurality of RF impedance matches, and finding a tune space for each of the plurality of RF impedance matches from the collected data. In an embodiment, the method further comprises finding adjustments to account for variability in each of the plurality of RF impedance matches, finding adjustments to variable tuning elements of the plurality of RF impedance matches to account for time varying and process related load impedances, and the method further comprises obtaining operating windows for the variable tuning elements in the plurality of RF impedance matches.

Fleetwide impedance tuning performance optimization

A battery model and equivalent circuit that includes an ohmic resistance, a first RC-pair that models a battery cell charge transfer reaction and double layer processes and a second RC-pair that models battery cell diffusion. Each of the ohmic resistance, the charge transfer reaction resistance and the diffusion resistance in the model are variable resistances, where each resistance changes in response to a change in voltage potential across the resistance.

Battery state estimator with overpotential-based variable resistors

Defrosting, defogging, and de-icing structures are disclosed herein. An example of the structure includes at least one optically transparent member, at least one electrical strip extending along the at least one surface of the at least one optically transparent member; and an optically transparent composite established on at least the at least one surface of the at least one optically transparent member. The composite is in thermal communication with the at least one electrical strip. The composite includes a matrix, and a predetermined amount of graphene. The predetermined amount is based upon a predetermined transparency for the structure and a predetermined thermal conductivity of the structure. Furthermore, the structure is configured such that the graphene functions as a thermal conductor for substantially uniform heating of the composite and not an electrical conductor.

Defrosting, defogging and de-icing structures

Hydrogen gas at a hydrogen refueling site is cooled below liquid nitrogen temperature (e.g., about 80K) for more efficient adsorption of hydrogen on hydrogen adsorbent particles in the fuel storage of a hydrogen powered vehicle. When compressed hydrogen gas is available it may be cooled with liquid nitrogen and then sub-cooled below about 70K by a Joule-Thompson expansion. When liquid hydrogen provides hydrogen gas it may be cooled below liquid nitrogen temperatures by mixing with liquid hydrogen or by heat exchange with liquid hydrogen.
