Description
Summary:Today’s growing demand for lithium-ion batteries across various industrial sectors has introduced a new concern: battery aging. This issue necessitates the development of tools and models that can accurately predict battery aging. This study proposes a general framework for constructing battery aging models using machine learning techniques and compares these models with two existing empirical models, including a commercial one. To build the models, the databases produced by EVERLASTING and Bills et al. were utilized. The aim is to create universally applicable models that can address any battery-aging scenario. In this study, three types of models were developed: a vanilla neural network, a neural network inspired by extreme learning machines, and an encoder coupled with a neural network. The inputs for these models are derived from established knowledge in battery science, allowing the models to capture aging effects across different use cases. The models were trained on cells subjected to specific aging conditions and they were tested on other cells from the same database that experienced different aging conditions. The results obtained during the test for the vanilla neural network showed an RMSE of 1.3% on the Bills et al. test data and an RMSE of 2.7% on the EVERLASTING data, demonstrating similar or superior performance compared to the empirical models and proving the ability of the models to capture battery aging.
