      abstract     = {Gas diffusion layers (GDLs) play a significant role in the
                      efficient operation of high-temperature polymer electrolyte
                      fuel cells. They connect the electrodes to the gas channels
                      of the bipolar plate by porous material with a meso-scale
                      geometric structure. The electrodes must be sufficiently
                      supplied by gases from the channels to operate fuel cells
                      efficiently. Furthermore, reaction products must be
                      transported in the other direction. The gas transport is
                      simulated in the through-plane direction of the GDL, and its
                      microstructure created by a stochastic model is equivalent
                      to the structure of real GDL material. Continuum approaches
                      in cell-scale simulations have model parameters for porous
                      regions that can be taken from effective properties
                      calculated from the meso-scale simulation results, as one
                      feature of multi-scale simulations. Another significant
                      issue in multi-scale simulations is the interface between
                      two regions. The focus is on the gas flow at the interface
                      between GDL and the gas channel, which is analyzed using
                      statistical methods. Quantitative relationships between
                      functionality and microstructure can be detected. With this
                      approach, virtual GDL materials can possibly be designed
                      with improved transport properties. The evaluation of the
                      surface flow with stochastic methods offers substantiated
                      benefits that are suitable for connecting the meso-scale to
                      larger spatial scales},
