Next-Generation Lithium-Ion Batteries
With structur.e, Math2Market GmbH and Volkswagen are pursuing the development of next generation lithium-ion batteries for electric mobility. The final goal is to significantly reduce the charging time for electric vehicles and to enable a longer range.
Get ready to explore the new digital possibilities to develop advanced battery materials!
The approaches in material development and battery research, enabled by the GeoDict software in this project, are also available for other applications! The GeoDict software allows to digitally create realistic material models of the battery materials microstructure using Artificial Intelligence. These digital models are used to simulate a variety of microstructuring processes, such as the use of a laser to create three-dimensional structures. The influence of these methods on the transport processes in the battery is then studied and quantified digitally on the microscale to find new design principles for next-generation materials.
