New Funding for Battery Reliability Research
SRSL has received research funding from the National Science Foundation for a new project on battery reliability assessment. This project is titled “Data-Driven Dynamic Reliability Assessment of Lithium-Ion Battery Considering Degradation Mechanisms.” This three-year project ($330K in total) will be carried out through collaboration with Dr. Shan Hu (ISU ME). It will create a dynamic reliability assessment platform for lithium-ion batteries that will enable battery management system (BMS) to develop predictive maintenance/control through concurrently analyzing degradation mechanisms and anticipating failure modes.
