Abstract Accurately estimating the State of Health (SOH) of batteries is of great significance for the stable operation and safety of lithium batteries. This article proposes a method based on the combination of Capacity Incremental Curve Analysis (ICA) and Whale Optimization Algorithm-Radial Basis Function (WOA-RBF) neural network algorithm to address the issues of low accuracy and slow convergence speed in estimating State of Health of batteries. Firstly, preprocess the battery data to obtain the real battery SOH curve and Capacity-Voltage (Q-V) curve, convert the Q-V curve into an IC curve and denoise it, analyze the parameters… More >

Abstract Accurate and reliable fault detection is essential for the safe operation of electric vehicles. Support vector data description (SVDD) has been widely used in the field of fault detection. However, constructing the hypersphere boundary only describes the distribution of unlabeled samples, while the distribution of faulty samples cannot be effectively described and easily misses detecting faulty data due to the imbalance of sample distribution. Meanwhile, selecting parameters is critical to the detection performance, and empirical parameterization is generally time-consuming and laborious and may not result in finding the optimal parameters. Therefore, this paper proposes a… More >

Abstract The use a stabilized lithium structure as cathode material for batteries could be a fundamental alternative in the development of next-generation energy storage devices. However, the lithium structure severely limits battery life causes safety concerns due to the growth of lithium (Li) dendrites during rapid charge/discharge cycles. Solid electrolytes, which are used in high-density energy storage devices and avoid the instability of liquid electrolytes, can be a promising alternative for next-generation batteries. Nevertheless, poor lithium ion conductivity and structural defects at room temperature have been pointed out as limitations. In this study, through the application… More >
