Universal Simulation Model of Battery Degradation with Optimization of Parameters by Genetic Algorithm by K. V. Dobrego, I. A. Koznacheev

“…A simple empirical model is presented that does not consider in detail the characteristics of the state of batteries during a separate charge-discharge cycle, and does not include voltaic variables. The model considers the intensity of the current wear of the battery as a function of the state of its charge, temperature, the current of the external circuit and the current of self-discharge, the full charge that has flowed through the battery since the beginning of its operation. …”
