The invention relates to a method for predicting the cycle life of a mechanically damaged
lithium battery based on mechanical characteristics and early cycle information, and belongs to the technical field of
lithium ion batteries. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, performing defect manufacturing on the
lithium battery under different indentation working conditions; then, finite element mechanical modeling is carried out on the
lithium battery under different mechanical indentation working conditions; then carrying out a charge-
discharge cycle test on the
lithium battery containing mechanical damage to enable the
lithium battery to reach the end of service life, obtaining cycle data of the battery, and carrying out electrochemical
feature extraction on the cycle data; performing mechanical
feature extraction on the lithium battery under different working conditions through a finite
element model; and finally, predicting the service life of the defective battery under different indentation working conditions through the
machine learning model. According to the method, the
full life cycle prediction of the lithium battery can be carried out by using the early cycle data and the damage mechanical characteristics, valuable guidance is provided for the aging and service of the mechanically damaged lithium battery, and the development of a prediction tool is promoted, so that more effective battery management and performance optimization are realized.
