Perspectives on Modeling, Prediction, and Control of Lithium-ion Batteries

Lithium-ion batteries have become widely used in applications due to their high energy and power densities and operating voltage. Some limitations of existing lithium-ion battery technology include underutilization, stress-induced material damage, capacity fade, and the potential for thermal runaway. This presentation provides perspectives on the modeling, prediction, and control of lithium-ion batteries, including a vision of a next-generation advanced battery management systems and the steps being taken to implement that vision.
