Battery Selection Tutorial Course 2/3: Beyond the Standards: Device-Specific Testing
After choosing your cell and manufacturer (Part 1 of this series), most likely, they will have passed the tests of various standards organizations. However, depending on your operating environment, you may need to go above and beyond the baseline to ensure your product operates as intended. This webinar is Part 2 in a three-part series and will review a variety of factors to consider in your device-specific testing, including designing tests to predict the outcomes of various user-abuse scenarios, understanding the mechanisms of gas generation, capacity retention based on different voltage windows, and what happens if you need to cycle your cells outside of their operating range (outside in an Arizona summer or Minnesota winter, for example).
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• User-abuse scenarios to prevent against
• Causes and effects of various gas generation mechanisms
• Voltage limitsPresenter

Battery Selection Tutorial Course 3/3: Integrating Your Battery Into Your Product – Designing for Worst-Case Scenarios
The last part in Exponent’s three-part series, this webinar will focus on the finished product from the viewpoint of the battery. How can you best protect your battery within your device? Is your battery going to be user-replaceable? If you’re creating multi-cell packs, how should they be separated from (yet still connected to) each other? Should a thermal event occur, how can you prevent that from cascading through the whole pack? This webinar will help to answer many of those questions, and discuss design questions to help safeguard your battery pack throughout its entire lifecycle.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Creating multi-cell packs
• Containing thermal runaway eventsPresenter

Certification Challenges for Secondary Use EV Batteries
As the 1st generation of Lithium-ion based hybrid and battery electric vehicles are reaching end-of life, or original traction batteries are being replaced with new batteries, the interest in secondary life or repurposing of these batteries continues to grow. Lithium-ion batteries present several challenges to Auto OEM’s, Recyclers and waste operators. Repurposing of EV batteries for non-automotive applications also creates new challenges for certification and acceptance by AHJ’s (Authorities Having Jurisdiction). This webinar discusses the current market challenges and concerns, while providing a roadmap of the current options for various usage cases of reused or repurposed EV batteries.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Understand the usage cases for secondary life batteries
• Review market drivers for secondary use batteries
• Review the concerns of battery and cell manufacturers with re-use of lithium-ion batteries
• Discuss the unique challenges to certifying used batteries for new applications
• Discuss current options for certification in the US marketPresenter

Simulation Of Battery Crash – Where Do We Stand?
FREE Webinar – PlugVolt is a proud sponsor of this event.
Safety is an important functional requirement in the development of large-format, energy-dense, lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries used in electrified vehicles. Computer aided engineering (CAE) tools that predict the response of a Li-ion battery pack to various abusive conditions can provide valuable insight during the design phase and reduce the need for physical testing.
However, the physics under such simulations is quite complex, and involves structural, thermal, electrical and electrochemical behaviors all coupled together and spanning length and time scales of different orders of magnitude.
In this talk, ANSYS LS-DYNA’s capabilities in the area of battery simulation will be introduced, current numerical challenges discussed, as well as a potential way forward towards including battery models in full car crash simulations.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• The state of battery crash simulations
• Numerical challenges
• Capabilities of the commercial finite element code in ANSYS LS-DYNA
• A path towards capturing the thermal/mechanical/electromagnetic behavior of batteries during a full vehicle crashPresenter
