Modelling the degradation process of lithium-ion batteries when operating at erratic state-of-charge swing ranges
(2017 4th International Conference on Control, Decision and Information Technologies (CoDIT), 11/09/2017)
Manufacturers of lithium-ion batteries inform capacity degradation for regular, symmetrical charge/discharge cycles, which is clearly problematic in real life applications where charge/discharge cycles are hardly regular. ...
Lithium-ion battery pack arrays for lifespan enhancement
(2017 CHILEAN Conference on Electrical, Electronics Engineering, Information and Communication Technologies (CHILECON), 12/21/2017)
Depending on the application, power and energy requirements may differ significantly and, most likely, a single lithium-ion cell will not suffice. Battery packs offer cell interconnections that allow to obtain several ...
Improvements of Energy-Efficient Techniques in WSNs: A MAC-Protocol Approach
(IEEE, 10/12/2018)
The pervasiveness of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) across different applications keeps increasing due to their versatility, although energy consumption is a huge constraint for these types of networks. Therefore, it is ...
Electric Bicycle Energy Management Given an Elevation Traveling Profile
(Annual Conference of the Prognostics and Health Management Society 2017, 09/06/2017)
This research proposes a method for energy management in electric bicycles with Lithium-Ion batteries. This method optimizes the way energy is consumed to maximize the rider’s comfort, subject to constraints on the battery ...
Characterization of the degradation process of lithium-ion batteries when discharged at different current rates
(05/08/2018)
The use of energy storage devices, such as lithium-ion batteries, has become popular in many different domains and applications. Hence, it is relatively easy to find literature associated with problems of battery state-of-charge ...

(A Comparative Analysis. In the Annual Conference of the Prognostics and Health Management Society 2015, 08/24/2015)
Battery energy systems are currently one of the most common power sources found in mobile electromechanical devices. In all these equipment, assuring the autonomy of the system requires to determine the battery state-of-charge ...
Characterizing the degradation process of Lithium-Ion Batteries using a Similarity-Based-Modeling Approach
(Fourth European Conference of the Prognostics and Health Management Society 2018, 07/01/2018)
This article proposes a Similarity-Based-Modeling (SBM) approach capable of characterizing the degradation process of a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery when discharged under different current rates and different State-of-Charge ...
State-of-charge estimation to improve decision making by MAC protocols used in WSNs
(IET, 02/07/2019)
Energy conservation is a topic of great interest in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Various techniques have been proposed to minimise the energy consumption. One approach is to design medium access control (MAC) protocols ...
