TL;DR: In this paper, a state-of-charge gauge for measuring the state of charge of secondary batteries, such as the type employed in electric vehicles, includes a microprocessor which, when supplied with data varying in accordance with battery discharge current and battery terminal voltage, determines battery resistance.

TL;DR: In this article, a nuclear fuel element for use in the core of a nuclear reactor is disclosed having an improved corrosion resistant cladding, which is comprised of zirconium alloys containing in weight percent 0.5 to 2.

TL;DR: This paper showed that crevice corrosion generates basic conditions in the occluded region, but thermodynamic arguments indicate that the mechanism for intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) of Alloy 600 in high purity water should differ from that for conventional caustic cracking.

TL;DR: Zirconium-based corrosion resistant alloys for use primarily as a cladding material for fuel rods in a boiling water nuclear reactor consist essentially of by weight percent about 0.5 to 2.0 percent thin, and the copper is at least 0.24 to 0.40 percent of a solute composed of copper, nickel and iron.

TL;DR: Zirconium-based corrosion resistant alloys for use primarily as a cladding material for fuel rods in a boiling water nuclear reactor which consist essentially of 0.5 to 2.5 weight percent tin and bismuth, and the balance being ZIRCONIUM as discussed by the authors.
