For many years, General Purpose Computing on Graphic Processing Units has been widely exploited in different fields of application. The hardware architectures enabling this kind of computation are increasingly complex, and their use for on-the-edge…
Sodium-Metal Halide Batteries are an interesting alternative to the Lithium-ion ones in stationary applications. However, their complex chemistry requires an accurate battery model to fully exploit the battery capabilities. The electric-equivalent models seem the best…
Characterization tests are key to improve the Lithium-Ion batteries performance. Unfortunately, they require expensive equipment that small companies and laboratories can hardly afford. In this paper a novel low-cost battery characterization setup is proposed. It…
Battery management systems (BMSs) play a critical and crucial role in ensuring the safety and the efficiency of the batteries. The increasing BMS complexity, the expanding interconnections between batteries and applications, and the introduction of…
Lithium-Ion batteries are the preferred solution for energy storage in many application fields. However, they can lead to hazardous situations and accidents when used outside their safety area. The development of early fail detection mechanisms…
