[0022] Finally, the above general expression is denoted as the damage-impedance relationship model.
[0023] Furthermore, step iv predicts the evolution of the average charge transfer impedance, and the specific process is as follows:
[0024] First, the average charge transfer impedance sample is obtained based on step i;
[0025] Then, the average charge transfer impedance samples are divided to obtain the training average charge transfer impedance sample set;
[0026] Next, the training average charge transfer impedance sample set is used to train the damage-impedance relationship model to determine the model feature parameters and the damage-impedance relationship.
[0027] Finally, the damage-impedance relationship is used for prediction to obtain prediction data A based on the training average charge transfer impedance sample set, and the prediction data A is saved.

[0069] First, the average charge transfer impedance sample is obtained based on step i;
[0070] Then, the average charge transfer impedance samples are divided to obtain the training average charge transfer impedance sample set;
[0071] Next, the training average charge transfer impedance sample set is used to train the damage-impedance relationship model to determine the model feature parameters and the damage-impedance relationship.
[0072] Finally, the damage-impedance relationship is used for prediction to obtain prediction data A based on the training average charge transfer impedance sample set, and the prediction data A is saved.
[0073] Step v: Construct a phenomenological model of the relationship between average charge transfer impedance and capacitance. The specific process is as follows:
[0074] An exponential model is used to construct a phenomenological relationship between average charge transfer impedance and capacity, which is denoted as the phenomenological relationship model between average charge transfer impedance and capacity.
[0075] The method for obtaining the average charge transfer impedance is as follows:
[0076] First, the impedance is selected as the charge transfer impedance;
[0077] Then, the impedance evolution data is taken as the average of the values before and after discharge;

[0082] Next, the training average charge transfer impedance sample set and capacity sample set are substituted into the phenomenological relation model for training;
[0083] Finally, an exponential model relationship between average charge transfer impedance and capacitance was determined.
[0084] Step vii: Predict the capacity evolution of the cyclic process. The specific process is as follows:

[0086] Then, error analysis is performed between the predicted data and the measured data of the analysis capacity sample set.
[0087] Specifically, the damage-impedance relationship model draws on the fatigue propagation theory of materials under cyclic loading (Paris theory) in mechanics, and constructs a description of the average charge transfer impedance before and after discharge using Paris theory. An evolution model of the rate of increase of charge-discharge cycles.

[0089]
[0090] Where N is the number of iterations, and C and m are the model feature parameters.
[0091] Specifically, an exponential model is used to construct the average charge transfer impedance. Phenomenological relation with capacity Q:

[0097] In one embodiment of the present invention, n is taken as 50 in the following examples.
[0098] Specifically, the process of establishing the damage-impedance relationship model in this invention is as follows:
[0099] During the cyclic charging and discharging process of lithium-ion batteries, the electrode material typically undergoes reciprocating deformation, which is mechanically equivalent to applying a generalized cyclic load to the electrode material. Similar to fatigue damage under cyclic loading, electrode materials also experience fatigue damage under generalized cyclic loading. This damage increases the impedance of the electrode material, and the increased impedance leads to capacity decay. Therefore, there is an inherent causal relationship between "fatigue damage → increased impedance → capacity decay" in the electrochemical process.
[0100] In fatigue damage theory, crack length is usually used as the key variable, and the service life is predicted by constructing a Paris model that describes the crack propagation rate with cycles.
[0101] This invention uses average charge transfer impedance as the key variable and predicts the evolution of electrode capacity by constructing an evolution model that describes the growth rate of average charge transfer impedance with charge-discharge cycles.
[0102] Specifically, the training method in the damage-impedance relationship model is implemented using the particle filter algorithm.
[0103] Specifically, the training method in the phenomenological relation model is implemented using the particle filter algorithm.
[0104] Another embodiment
[0105] First, obtain experimental data samples of impedance and capacitance.
[0106] As a case study, graphene-coated silicon electrodes were selected for the experiment. The required electrodes were fabricated, and CR2032 lithium-ion batteries were assembled. A Blue Battery charge-discharge system was used to perform charge-discharge cycles at two rates (C / 2 and C / 4). Every four cycles, an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy test was performed using an electrochemical workstation. Each impedance measurement was conducted before and after discharge. Figure 1 The equivalent circuit shown is used to fit the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to obtain charge transfer impedance data before and after discharge. After removing the initial activation and late failure stages corresponding to the charge transfer impedance, only the stable decay stage of interest in the actual prediction is retained. The resulting evolution data of capacity and charge transfer impedance are shown below. Figure 2 and 3 As shown.
[0107] right Figure 3 The average charge transfer impedance at different cycle numbers is obtained by averaging the impedance data in (a) and (b). Data sample.
[0108] Then, the average charge transfer impedance is predicted.
[0109] Pick The first 50% of the evolution data samples (corresponding to the training average charge transfer impedance sample set) are substituted into formula (1) for training. A particle filter algorithm is developed using Matlab to obtain the parameters C and m in the model. The initial values of C and m can be referenced to 0.001 and 1, and selected according to the actual situation. After determining the parameters C and m, the damage-impedance relationship can be determined, and thus the damage-impedance relationship can be predicted. The evolution pattern in the latter 50% of the cycle, i.e., the predicted data A.
[0110] Next, the phenomenological relationship between average charge transfer impedance and capacitance was determined.
[0111] Will The first 50% of the data samples (corresponding to the training average charge transfer impedance sample set) and the first 50% of the Q data samples (corresponding to the training capacity sample set) are substituted into formula (2) for training. Similarly, a particle filter algorithm is developed using Matlab to obtain the parameters a and b in the model, where the initial values of a and b are obtained using least squares fitting. After determining the parameters a and b through the particle filter algorithm, the model is obtained. The phenomenological relationship with Q.
[0112] Finally, a comparison of the prediction accuracy of capacity evolution patterns was conducted.
[0113] Will The evolutionary pattern in the latter 50% of the cycle, i.e., the regression of predicted data A. The phenomenological relationship between Q and formula (2) can predict the evolution of capacity in the last 50% of the cycle.
[0114] To evaluate the predictive capability of the damage-impedance relationship model, the error between the predicted capacity and the actual capacity at two different capacities was calculated, and the results were compared with those of a traditional empirical model. The results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the traditional empirical model uses an exponential model to directly construct the phenomenological relationship between capacity Q and the number of cycles N, i.e.
[0115] Q = a²exp(b²N) (3)
[0116] Similarly, using the first 50% of the data samples and combining the particle filter algorithm for experimental prediction, the initial values of the model parameters a2 and b2 were also obtained by least squares fitting.
[0117] from Figure 4The comparison shows that the damage-impedance relationship model of the present invention provides prediction results that are closer to the measured results at both magnification rates. A comparison of the prediction errors of the two models reveals that the prediction error of the damage-impedance relationship model is below 3% at all magnification rates, while the maximum prediction error of the traditional empirical model exceeds 6%. Therefore, the damage-impedance relationship model of the present invention demonstrates superior predictive ability.
[0118] The prediction process of this invention takes into account the damage mechanism inside the electrode material, and the model is simple and clear, achieving higher accuracy prediction. The operation process is simple and can be extended to predict the actual remaining service life of lithium-ion batteries.
