title: Distinguishability of battery equivalent-circuit models containing CPEs: Updating the work of Berthier, Diard, & Michel

authors: Poihipi, Eden Kathleen

subjects: Constant Phase Elements

abstract: This manuscript revisits the assertion of Berthier et al. that competing fractional-element equivalent-circuit models of battery cells are indistinguishable in the presence of noise. Starting with Westerhoff’s general equivalent-circuit model (ECM) of 2016 and an idealized impedance spectrum of a lithium battery, a contemporary set of possible ECMs are chosen. Their distinguishability is investigated. Using the extended frequency range recommended by Mauracher & Karden in 1997 or Hasan & Scott in 2019, an approach is presented that permits selection of the appropriate model, even in the presence of noise. For the given frequency range, models with up to five elements or eight real parameters are studied. Fitting to measured data with straightforward numerical methods and choosing the most primitive appropriate sub-circuit is shown to reproduce the data. Typically a three-element, five-parameter ECM is shown to model real, measured data with precision comparable to individual sample error.

title: Tikanga Tainui: Tikanga whare wānanga

authors: Roa, Tom

subjects: Tikanga Māori

abstract: This paper is a preliminary report on an ongoing research project begun in 1999. The project involves consultation with Waikato-Tainui, the tāngata whenua of the Waikato region, about the construction of guidelines for University of Waikato staff (both Māori and non-Māori) who are involved in gatherings that call for adherence to Tainui protocols. Here, the emphasis is on guidelines for the conduct of pōwhiri (formal welcomes) on the University Marae.
