Description
Summary:This paper describes Proton-Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cells, their importance to military applications, and how their design can be enhanced using computational techniques. We extend the logic of plausible reasoning given by Collins and Michalski in two directions. First, it uses a context-free grammar for the operations of generalization and specialization. Second, it uses granular computing to put analogical reasoning on a fuzzy basis. Finally, it demonstrates in the context of fuel cell design that a paradigm for computing with words can achieve common-sense reasoning.
