Project title: diagnostics for lithium batteries Supervisor: Dr Rohit Bhagat (WMG) and Chris Lyness (JLR) Project Overview: Lithium batteries change and degrade during operation leading to reduced performance. This becomes increasingly important when considering the electric vehicle application where many batteries are connected to form battery...

The project will be carried out in collaboration with TATA Steel Europe and be co-supervised between Professor Seetharaman, Royal Academy of Engineering / Tata Steel Research Chair in Low Carbon Materials Technologies and personnel from TATA Steel Europe R&D. Project: Sustainable iron manufacturing requires flexibility with regards to raw...

Supervisor: Dr Rohit Bhagat Project Overview: Lithium batteries consist of various valuable compounds embedded in different layers with structural materials surrounding them. Lithium is a strategic material and will become increasingly important as electrification of vehicles continues. Currently only a small percentage of these batteries are...

Project Title: Safety Within Lithium Batteries Supervisor:  Dr Rohit Bhagat (WMG) and Chris Lyness (JLR) Project Overview: Manufacturers recommend that their lithium batteries be operated in a restricted operational range i.e. state of charge (e.g. 30-75%), temperature (e.g. 10-50°C), pressure, compression etc. When taken past these...

Supervisor: Dr Rohit Bhagat (WMG) and Chris Lyness (JLR) Project Overview: Accelerated testing is a process of testing a product by subjecting it to conditions (stress, strain, temperature, cycle rate, pressure etc.) in excess of its normal service parameters in an effort to uncover faults and potential modes of failure in a short time.
