BMBF PROJECT: MULTIBAT
Multiscale Models and Model Order Reduction Methods
for Predicting the Life-Time of Lithium-Ion Batteries
The aim of this collaborative research project is the development of efficient mathematical methods for the modeling of multi-phase and multi-scale processes in lithium-ion batteries. The modeling involves the stochastic structure modeling of porous electrodes for the generation of parametrized dynamic structure models based on imaging data, the mathematical modeling of the underlying physical and electrochemical processes by coupled systems of partial differential equations, their efficient high-resolution simulation with modern adaptive multiscale methods, as well as the model order reduction of high-dimensional, parameterized multiscale systems to enable rapid parameter studies, sensitivity analyses or uncertainty quantification. The work focuses on the adaptive modeling of degradation processes that lead to a change in the underlying geometric structure of the porous electrode material. In particular, the local deposition of metallic lithium (lithium plating) is investigated in this project.
