Summary: This work proposes a novel connection fault diagnosis method based on mechanical vibration signals rather than voltage and current measurements. The simulation of the vibration environment and optimal sensor placement are achieved, and a broad belief network (BBN) is proposed for detecting and locating connection faults in lithium-ion battery packs based on the vibration signals. Incremental-learning algorithms are paired with the BBN to adapt to new data in real-time. The empirical evidence shows a diagnostic accuracy of 93.25%, demonstrating the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.

Summary: Accurately calculating the capacity of battery packs is essential for various aspects in electric vehicles. This paper proposes a specialized method for EVs, using an OCV correction strategy to ensure the credibility of battery SOC. The method is validated with a mean absolute error of 2.6 Ah and applied to 707 on-road electric vehicles, resulting in degradation models with mean absolute errors of 3.138 Ah and 3.137 Ah. The analysis also reveals the correlation between capacity degradation and user behaviors, suggesting that starting the charging at a SOC between 30% and 40% can effectively alleviate degradation.
