Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of lithium-ion battery electrode stress calculation, and in particular relates to a method for determining the stress between electrode particles in a lithium-ion battery discharge process based on an electrochemical-force coupling model. Background technique [0002] In recent years, as an excellent energy storage carrier, lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and computers, as well as in the field of electric vehicles. However, as the number of charge-discharge cycles increases, lithium ions are continuously deintercalated in the positive and negative electrodes, which will cause the expansion and contraction of the electrode particles, resulting in stress inside and between the particles. The generation of stress has the following three factors: (1) the deintercalation of external lithium ions, resulting in particle expansion, and the stress generated by th...
