| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, to theoretically design the electrode of a solid oxide fuel cell, we developed a simulator capable of elucidating interactive multi-scale phenomena in the electrode during the operation and investigated the crack generation process of Ni based cermet electrode by chemical reaction. Using the developed simulator, we found that increasing the yttria concentration leads to the increase in the oxygen vacancies in YSZ, resulting in the stress concentration. Thus, the plastic deformation is easy to occur. In addition, we found that the dissociation of water molecule occurs on the Ni surface and the compressive stress was generated on the surface, which accelerates the generation of stacking fault in the surface of the polycrystalline Ni substrate.
