Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Batteries have become an essential power source in many fields, such as electric vehicles and smart grids, due to increasing environmental concerns. The lifespan and cost of batteries play a crucial role in addressing energy crises and environmental issues. The development of models that accurately predict battery life, design effective charging strategies, and assess battery performance now presents considerable challenges in both science and engineering.

This Special Issue of Batteries is open to submissions on the topic of battery numerical modeling, including battery performance modeling, state of charge and health estimation, and charging strategy optimization.

Scientists and engineers are encouraged to submit articles addressing topics in the following areas:

  1. Battery modeling method development, including electrochemical models, data-driven methods, and hybrid modeling approaches.
  2. Simulation of the charging and discharging processes for various types of batteries, including lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries, and second-life batteries.
  3. Optimization of the parameters of batteries in specific applications, i.e., electric vehicles, power grid systems, and fuel cell vehicles.
  4. Simulation of the battery degradation process with physical-based models or data-driven approaches.
  5. Charging strategy development in distinct scenarios.
  6. Design of thermal management, including the design of heat dissipation structure and cooling strategies.

With the global surge in electric vehicle (EV) deployment, driven by enhanced environmental regulations and efforts to reduce transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions, managing the life cycle of Li-ion batteries becomes more critical than ever. A crucial step for battery reuse or recycling is the precise estimation of static capacity at retirement. Traditional methods are time-consuming, often taking several hours. To address this issue, a machine learning-based approach is introduced to estimate the static capacity of retired batteries rapidly and accurately. Partial discharge data at a 1C rate over durations of 6, 3, and 1 min were analyzed using a machine learning algorithm that effectively handles temporally evolving data. The estimation performance of the methodology was evaluated using the mean absolute error (MAE), mean squared error (MSE), and root mean squared error (RMSE). The results showed reliable and fairly accurate estimation performance, even with data from shorter partial discharge durations. For the one-minute discharge data, the maximum RMSE was 2.525%, the minimum was 1.239%, and the average error was 1.661%. These findings indicate the successful implementation of rapidly assessing the static capacity of EV batteries with minimal error, potentially revitalizing the retired battery recycling industry.
