TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of cold temperatures on the capacity/power fade of Li-ion battery technology are discussed, along with thermal strategies and the ideal approach to cold-temperature operation.

TL;DR: The simulation results of a battery pack under HEV driving cycle conditions show that the characteristics of the proposed model allow a good comparison with data from an actual lithium-ion battery pack used in an HEV.

TL;DR: This paper investigates how load cycle and calendar life properties affect the lifetime and aging processes of Li-ion cells at low temperatures, and develops and adds a preliminary single-cell electrothermal model to establish a thermal strategy capable of predicting how the cell ages.

TL;DR: In this article, a multi-physics model is used for the design and diagnosis of the alkaline electrolyzers, based on a new approach that allows to choose precisely the design parameters of a new electrolyzer even if it is not commercially available and predicting energy consumption, efficiency and rate of hydrogen production, taking into account to their physical state and various operating conditions.

TL;DR: A low-sampling-rate and nonintrusive appliance loads monitoring (NIALM), which required only few tuning parameters and which is little sensitive to the grid power noise, is presented, based on the subtractive clustering and the maximum likelihood classifier.
