Safety of Lithium-Ion Batteries

Dear Colleagues,

The safety of Lithium-Ion batteries (LIBs) has attracted attention worldwide due to the current trends in communication and mobilization brought about by rapidly evolving versions of smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other electronic devices, as well as the continuing increase in the number of electric vehicles. Researchers are encouraged to contribute papers addressing the mechanisms and new tecnologies on solving the safety issues of LIBs. Contributions are encouraged in areas including, but not limited to:

• The safety behavior and mechanism of LIB under mechanical abuse;
• The safety behavior and mechanism of LIB under electrical abuse;
• The safety behavior and mechanism of LIB under thermal abuse;
• The computational models of LIB;
• The safety materials and structures of LIB/LIB module;
• The early warning technologies.
