Summary: The design of optimized charging strategies based on electrochemical models is crucial for the broader use of electric vehicles. Lithium plating on the anode surface, which is closely related to charging lifetime and battery safety, should not be ignored in charging strategy design. By using electrochemical models in combination with the lithium plating criterion, the maximum charging current that prevents lithium plating can be identified, facilitating accurate determination of model parameters. However, most current studies have not considered the influence of electrochemical parameters on characterizing variables for the lithium plating criterion. To improve the accuracy of the electrochemical model for the lithium plating reaction, a sensitivity analysis of different parameters was carried out, and the effect of temperature was also investigated.

Summary: The accuracy estimation of state-of-charge (SoC) is crucial for battery management system to ensure safe operation. A improved cubature Kalman filter method is introduced to enhance the precision and dependability of SoC estimation by reducing noise. The method includes constructing equivalent circuit model, identifying battery model parameters with adaptive forgetting factor bias compensation recursive least squares, and proposing an improved adaptive square root cubature Kalman filter (IASRCKF) for SoC estimation. Simulation results show that the proposed method significantly decreases the estimation error, with RMSE and MAE of 0.18% and 0.15% respectively. Compared to the ASRCKF approach, the RMSE and MAE can be reduced by 40% and 44.4% respectively. Robustness analyses demonstrate exceptional estimation capabilities under different conditions.

Summary: The Lithium and Manganese-rich layered oxides with the formula Li1.2Ni0.1Mn0.6Co0.1O2 (LMR-NMC) are considered highly promising cathode materials for next-generation lithium-ion batteries due to their high energy densities, low cost, high thermal stability, and environmental safety. This study synthesized LMR-NMC oxides with different morphologies and analyzed their crystal structures and electrochemical properties. The nanoplatelet-like morphology (LMR-NMC-A) exhibited better performance than the cubic-like morphology (LMR-NMC-B). These findings confirm the suitability of nanoplatelet-like LMR-NMC-A as a cathode material for lithium-ion batteries.

Summary: The proposed method for lithium plating detection in lithium-ion batteries utilizes the DEIS technique and can effectively detect lithium plating in real-time during the charging process. By analyzing the impedance of the battery in the frequency domain, the method is capable of detecting lithium plating by monitoring the real and imaginary parts of the battery impedance. The experimental results show that the DEIS technique is effective for detecting lithium plating at different temperatures and charging conditions, for rates as high as 6C, and for different battery types.

Summary: Heteroatom doping is a common modification method for lithium-ion battery electrodes, and it can improve the electrochemical performance of materials. In this study, CO2-modified VO2(B) nanorods were synthesized, resulting in a CO2-VO2 electrode with high rate capacity and capacity retention. The role of CO2 small molecules as a pillar in the interlayer of VO2(B) and the weak electrostatic attraction between OCO2 and Li+ contribute to the stability and diffusion of lithium ions.
