Shaking Lithium-Ion Cells on a Rocker - Temperature-Dependent Influence of Mechanical Movement on Lithium-Ion Battery Lifetime

The aim of this study is to evaluate the mechanical influence of motion on the aging behavior of automotive lithium-ion battery cells. The battery cells were aged by galvanostatic cycling at different temperatures and currents. During the galvanostatic cycling, the cells were shaken on a rocker to simulate the movement of a vehicle. Over lifetime, changes were measured in capacity, temperature, and internal resistance.
