MLBattProt EU project

Machine learning based model of battery cell aging used in computational geometry for on-line battery pack health protection - MLBattProt

A new project acronymmed MLBattProt has recently started its execution.


Project summary

The aim of this project, between Rimac Technology ltd and University of Zagreb, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing is to use computational geometry and machine learning functions in a coherent procedure that allows to online determine the feasible battery loading profiles. In other words, this project addresses the problem of describing the aging of a battery cell by a dynamic model with direct aging states and with only the readily available cell measurements as inputs, by an innovative combination of estimation theory and machine learning.

The main project target groups are producers and users of systems with Li-ion batteries (electric vehicles, stationary storages) whose respective battery management systems can be significantly enhanced to secure battery life extension. The project also addresses research groups and companies for prospective further joint R&D oriented towards increasing the technology readiness level reached at the project end.
