    Finding Your Place as the Industry Doubles Down on Electrified Vehicles

    Sales are moving forward, primarily due to the Tesla Model 3. A raft of new vehicles is arriving in 2019. Besides the plug-ins and battery electrics, hybrids (including 48V and stop/start micro hybrids) are coming.

    Is it a response to regulatory policy? Yes. Is regulatory policy unclear? Yes. Are some companies leaders and others laggards? Yes. Is the supply base critical to product development? Yes. Automakers are setting their own positions as they try to understand the threats and opportunities in their key global markets, even as the regulatory situation becomes more muddled.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Current Sales Trends Regarding EVs and Hybrids
    • EPA/NHTSA vs. The Automakers!?
    • California, EU, and China March Forward
    • Strategies in Near-, Medium-, and Long-Term for Supplier and Automaker

    Battery Intelligence in Action – How to Launch an EV

    FREE Webinar – Voltaiq is a proud sponsor of this event.

    Launching a new EV platform is a high-stakes game, where any problems encountered during battery pack development can severely jeopardize target ship dates. Developing an EV battery pack is a lengthy process comprising multiple interconnected stages that span from choosing the right cell to integrating the full pack into the vehicle. Each of these stages is complex and involves function-specific battery testing and analysis. This webinar will walk through each stage of EV pack development in detail, and will highlight how an integrated Battery Intelligence platform can drive an on-time launch and ensure quality and traceability, while minimizing risk throughout the vehicle lifecycle.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Discuss how the battery is the most complex and costly component in the development of an EV, and is the component most likely to delay launch
    • Review the complex multi-step process required to develop an EV pack and demystify pack development from cell selection through vehicle integration
    • Showcase an interactive demonstration of key analytics

    How Battery Intelligence Can “Recession-Proof” Your Battery Program

    FREE Webinar – Voltaiq is a proud sponsor of this event.

    COVID-19 and the recession will separate winners from losers. Despite the current downturn, there are opportunities for automakers, consumer electronics OEMs, cell suppliers, and the broader battery ecosystem to adopt new tools and processes to survive the recession and come out on top. For the greater battery ecosystem, Voltaiq, the market leader in Battery Intelligence software, is helping companies adapt to the new normal for remote work, streamlined decision making, and organizational efficiency. This webinar will provide an overview of battery-specific challenges related to COVID-19, best practices highlighted by leading business publications, and real examples of how leading companies are using tools like Voltaiq to navigate the current storm, make gains on the competition, and ship product.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • The impact of COVID-19 on battery development programs
    • Recession as an opportunity to digitize your business while opportunity costs are lower
    • How digital transformation can help companies thrive post-recession by increasing efficiency and resilience while streamlining decision-making
    • Examples of how Battery Intelligence software is helping companies ship product during COVID-19

    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 crash
