Battery management systems

Large-scale battery packs are needed in hybrid and electric vehicles, utilities grid backup and storage, and frequency-regulation applications. In order to maximize battery-pack safety, longevity, and performance, it is important to understand how battery cells work. This first of its kind new resource focuses on developing a mathematical understanding of how electrochemical (battery) cells work, both internally and externally. nThis comprehensive resource derives physics-based micro-scale model equations, then continuum-scale model equations, and finally reduced-order model equations.
