Modeling, Reliability and Health Management of Lithium-Ion Batteries—2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

With increasing attention paid to environmental issues, "carbon neutrality" has become one of the main policy goals in many countries and regions. The development of new energy vehicles and battery energy storage is of great significance for the control of carbon emissions. As a key component of new energy vehicles and energy storage systems, battery life and cost directly affect the life and economy of the whole system. Therefore, improving the reliability, durability, and economy of the whole life cycle of the battery system has become an urgent scientific and major engineering problem.

This Special Issue will focus on battery energy storage and its health management system. Papers are invited in all different areas of battery health management, as battery energy storage is a multidisciplinary topic that involves research areas, such as electrochemistry, materials, control, electrical and mechanical issues, as well as economic and environmental aspects. Both theoretical and experimental studies, or a combination of both, are welcome. In recent years, the diagnosis of battery thermal runaway has attracted attention and encouraged scientists to explore new methods for the diagnosis of new physical quantities of battery thermal runaway.

Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Multi-physical field battery modeling (electrical, thermal, force, gas, etc.);
• Battery degradation mechanism and modeling;
• Battery thermal runaway mechanism and modeling;
• Battery numerical calculation and simulation technology;
• Battery states estimation algorithm (SOC, SOH, SOP, SOE, etc.);
• Battery thermal runaway and fault diagnosis;
• Battery life prediction and health management;
• Battery reliability evaluation methods;
• Battery charging control strategy;
• Battery balancing control strategy;
• Battery thermal management control strategy.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Batteries is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
