Ice accumulation is a pervasive natural phenomenon that exerts a severe and catastrophic impact on a broad range of social systems. Previous investigations on anti-/de-icing techniques have primarily focused on mild laboratory conditions, which have limited practical applicability due to their short service life.

Vehicles that utilize more than one energy source for propulsion are usually termed hybrid vehicles. Although the onboard energy storage system (ESS) may be a flywheel or a hydraulic accumulator, most hybrid vehicles use chemical batteries or capacitors and are termed hybrid-electric vehicles. Fuel cells (FCs) may be used in hybrid-electric vehicles as primary power sources instead of conventional internal combustion engines (ICEs). In this article, ICE–battery hybrid transit buses are discussed specifically and contrasted with conventional drive buses. ...

The continued thirst for energy is a recurring story in news headlines every day. Global warming forecasts rising temperatures, melting ice, and population dislocations due to accumulation of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere from use of carbon-based energy. There are strong arguments for and against the dire predictions of global warming, yet one fact is undeniable—over the past 10 to 20 years, the inhabitants of Earth are collectively consuming more energy at a faster rate than ever before.
