Data-Driven Fault Diagnosis of Lithium-Ion Battery Overdischarge in Electric Vehicles

The overdischarge can significantly degrade a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery's lifetime. Therefore, it is important to detect the overdischarge and prevent severe damage of the Li-ion battery. Depending on the battery technology, there is a minimum voltage (cutoff voltage) that the battery is allowed to be discharged in common practice. Once the...

An online data driven fault diagnosis and thermal runaway early warning for electric vehicle batteries

Battery fault diagnosis is crucial for stable, reliable, and safe operation of electric vehicles, especially the thermal runaway early warning. Developing methods for early failure detection and reducing safety risks from failing high energy lithium-ion batteries has become a major challenge for industry. In this article, a real-time early...
