Metrology News – Essential Site Maintenance

August 11, 2022August 29, 2022 Keith Mills Publishing Editor

Metrology News will be transitioning over the coming days from a shared to a dedicated server. The transfer of the portal to its own dedicated server has been mandated due to the overall size that the site has now grown into. It is anticipated that we will be back online reporting all of the daily news again early next week and with a minimum of disruptions to the existing site hosting.

Non-Destructive Evaluation Technologies Making Batteries Safer and More Efficient
April 4, 2024
Lithium-ion batteries—the most common cells used in electric and hybrid cars—produce current when lithium ions move from the anode to the cathode. Colder temperatures can slow this process down and restrict battery performance. When a battery is delivering peak output in hot weather, latent defects in the battery can cause catastrophic failure.
