The power behind battery design
Design Solutions, August 10, 2012
Mathematical based modelling and simulation software from Maplesoft is being used to develop high-fidelity models of hybrid-electric and fully electric vehicle batteries
In the fast-moving hybrid-electric and fully electric vehicle market, manufacturers are being forced to come up with new designs faster than ever before. So, the industry is turning to math-based physical modelling techniques which allow engineers to accurately describe the behaviour of the components that comprise the system and the physical constraints on it. These model equations are then used to develop, test, and refine designs quickly, and without the expense and time required to build physical prototypes.
