In electric vehicle (EV) and hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) application, accurate information of state-ofcharge (SOC) and capacity of each cell are required for elaborate SOC/capacity estimation algorithm of the battery pack. However, the measurement of the states of all cells using sophisticated algorithms increases the computation time beyond practicality, because the computation time required...

Alkali metal ion batteries, and in particular Li-ion have become a key technology for current future energy storage. The inherent complexity of batteries their components make computational approaches on different length time scales indispensable gaining atomistic insights as well predicting new materials with improved properties. In this comprehensive review, the theoretical concepts that unde...

Na or K ion rechargeable battery is started to garner attention recently in Place of Li+ ion cell. It is important that A+ site ion can move in and out the positive-electrode materials. When K2Ta2O6 powder had a pyrochlore structure was only dipped into NaOH aqueous solution at room temperature, Na2Ta2O6 was obtained. K2Ta2O6 was fabricated from a tantalum sheet by a hydrothermal synthesize wit...

We present the formation of a carbon-coated honeycomb ternary Ni-Mn-Co-O inverse opal as a conversion mode anode material for Li-ion battery applications. In order to obtain high capacity via conversion mode reactions, a single phase crystalline honeycombed IO structure of Ni-Mn-Co-O material was first formed. This Ni-Mn-Co-O IO converts via reversible redox reactions and Li2O formation to a 3D...

Due to their small footprint and flexible siting, rechargeable batteries are attractive for energy storage systems. A super-valent battery based on aluminium ion intercalation and deintercalation is proposed in this work with VO2 as cathode and high-purity Al foil as anode. First-principles calculations are also employed to theoretically investigate the crystal structure change and the insertio...

In order to improve battery technology understanding the capacity fading method in batteries is very important. Battery models can be used to predict their behavior under various operating conditions. Here we proposed a simple dynamic model of lithium-ion battery with MATLAB/Simulink to observe the output characteristics of this energy storage device. Dynamic simulations are carried out, includ...
