  • Publication number: 20240132051
    Abstract: In some implementations, a method may include obtaining target fault data indicating a preselected fault for a vehicle having a hydrogen source. In addition, the method may include obtaining vehicle fault data indicating a fault of the vehicle. The method may include identifying a match between the fault and the preselected fault. Moreover, the method may include purging, in response to the identifying the match, hydrogen from the hydrogen source so as to reduce consequences of a battery thermal event by reducing the likelihood of a hydrogen-fueled fire.

  • Publication number: 20240079616
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods of detecting a hydrogen leak in a system comprising a hydrogen storage system storing hydrogen, a temperature sensor, a pressure sensor, a hydrogen storage system controller, and a notification system. The hydrogen storage system controller is configured to measure thermodynamic properties of the hydrogen in the hydrogen storage system, and the thermodynamic properties of the hydrogen are used to determine if there is a hydrogen leak in the fuel cell system. The notification system alerts a user of any detected hydrogen leak.

  • Publication number: 20060110465
    Abstract: Compositions for primarily addressing degenerative complaints, in particular joint related conditions such as arthritis and rheumatism, in which there may also be associated inflammation, are provided. Other potential uses are also discussed, as well as prophylactic and curative applications. Preferred embodiments incorporate green-lip mussel products (particularly GLME) with shark cartilage or chondroitin compounds, and plant and bark based antioxidants are employed in a number of embodiments.
