e-mobility
As the complexity and popu-
larity of e-mobility increases, the
demands placed on the battery are
greater than ever. This crucial sys-
tem must therefore perform and
behave with utmost reliability.
Even though today’s batteries de-
liver more than ever before, their
development and production are
subject to uncertainties and unpre-
dictable issues such as production
tolerances. This can lead to a high
level of costly production scrap.
Battery development is a vibrating
space of captivating topics, such as
cell characterization, cell aging, fleet
battery modelling, and optimiza-
tion of cell material and geometry.
When optimizing cell material and
geometry, there are risks of devia-
tions in terms of capacity, aging,
lifetime, or performance that can
affect the battery’s target values, but
which are difficult to manage.
At AVL we’re using AI to tackle
this problem.
DESIGNING THE BEST CELL
IN THE WORLD
Cell design comes with myriad con-
siderations, from choosing the right
chemical composition for the best
performance, to the exact anode
thickness and layout, all to achieve
the desired KPIs. Input uncertain-
ties (such as tolerances, environ-
mental or usage factors) that are
often difficult to consider, make op-
timizing the cell composition com-
plex and time consuming. That is
why we have developed the Ro-
bustness Optimizer, as part of AVL
CAMEO 5™ for Battery.
This AI algorithm takes any difficult
or uncertain values – such as toler-
ances, environmental or usage fac-
tors – and integrates them into the
optimization workflow. The result is
increased certainty in areas such as:
• Optimal trade-offs between bat-
tery KPIs such as cell capacity,
fast charging capability and losses
• Production tolerance consider-
ation and identification in cell
composition design
• Strongly reduce production scrap
and save money
With the Robustness Optimizer, we
are leading the charge for optimal
cell design. Turning uncertainty on
its head, the unpredictable can now
be added to the equation. �������������������������������������������������
