Parametric Study on the Safety Behavior of Mechanically Induced Short Circuit for Lithium-Ion Pouch Batteries

Safety issues of lithium-ion batteries under mechanical abuse have attracted worldwide attention due to its high uncertainty and high risks, following by the rapid increase of market share for lithium-ion battery-driven smart products. In this work, the safety behavior of a pouch battery under mechanical abuse conditions is numerically investigated using a simultaneously coupled mechanical–electrochemical–thermal model. The short-circuit and...
