This tutorial is the third part of the Digital Battery Design tutorial series:

1. Import and Quality Control of a Cathode Material: This tutorial guides you along the steps to analyze, post-process and finally segment a 3D-scan of an NMC-cathode.
2. Standardized Microstructure Analysis of a Cathode Material: This tutorial shows how to analyze the segmented scan regarding transport properties and pore size distribution.
3. Building a Statistical Digital Twin of a Cathode Material: In this tutorial a statistical digital twin is built and validated using the results from the second part of this tutorial series.
4. Digital Battery Charging Learn how to analyze the charging behavior of a digital battery consisting of bimodal electrodes.

In detail, this tutorial teaches you to do the following:

• Creating a statistical digital twin with GrainGeo,
• Analyzing the twin’s microstructure geometry on pore sizes, tortuosity, surface area, grain sizes, and chord lengths,
• Validating the twin by comparing the analysis results to the results of the original data set

Generating a statistical digital twin is the starting point to interactively change the material components and parameters, e.g. the binder content in an electrode to optimize the performance of your materials.
