Battery Design and Management

Propose a Topic

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Batteries can be classified into small-scale applications (mobile phones), medium-scale applications (hybrid electric vehicles), and large-scale applications (electric grids) in terms of scale. They are efficient and have a high specific energy, with a safe and recyclable design. However, concerns about their cost and lifespan have hindered the wider application of battery energy storage. Researchers are constantly developing battery chemistries that cost less and last longer.

Battery systems engineering, the intersection of chemistry, dynamic modeling, and systems/control engineering, requires a multidisciplinary approach. This Topic will highlight recent studies in the field of battery systems engineering, providing the background, models, solution techniques, and system theory required for the development of advanced battery systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics:

  • Battery materials and battery design;
  • Battery and system modeling and simulation;
  • Battery status estimation and troubleshooting;
  • Battery thermal management and thermal safety
  • Power battery echelon utilization;
  • Battery balance;
  • Hydrogen fuel cells;
  • Battery accident analysis.

Preprints

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

i. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.

ii. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.

iii. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.

iv. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.

v. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
