Advanced Tool for Computer Aided Battery Engineering (SNL)

This project aims to provide experimental support, including support for validation and parameterization, for mechanical failure modeling work as part of DOE's Computer Aided Engineering for Electric-Drive Vehicle Batteries (CAEBAT) program. This work involves mechanical deformation testing on both charged and discharged cells, including abusive mechanical testing leading to battery failure. The mechanical data generated is provided to the modeling teams to provide empirical parameterization as well as validation for newly developed models. Testing fully charged cells and packs (abusive battery testing) also allows for a better understanding of what conditions are most likely to lead to a potentially hazardous thermal runaway event.
