Battery comparison, Manufacturing, and Packaging: In this course, you’ll identify components of battery management systems including electrical and thermal protections, cell balancing, state of charge and state of health estimation.
Module 1 provides the basic operating principles of electric vehicle batteries namely, Pb-Acid, Ni-MH and Li-ion. The major objective in this module is to learn about the comparison related to performance, durability and safety of these batteries in the electric vehicle applications. This module also highlights the suitability and requirements of the Pb-Acid, Ni-MH and Li-ion batteries for the electric vehicle applications.
Module 2 provides the basic concepts of electric vehicle batteries manufacturing. The major objective in this module is to learn about the advanced manufacturing 4.0 of EV batteries with optimized cost of quality using sustainable functional and non-functional materials. This module also provides manufacturing aspects of cylindrical, pouch and prismatic cells, modules and packs for electric vehicle applications.
Module 3 provides the basic principles of packaging for optimizing the functional materials through cylindrical, pouch and prismatic configurations. The major objective is to learn about various packaging designs for improving performance, cycle life and safety of the batteries in the electric vehicle applications. This module also provides details on the demand and supply of batteries for EVs.
Arizona State University has developed a new model for the American Research University, creating an institution that is committed to excellence, access and impact. ASU measures itself by those it includes, not by those it excludes. ASU pursues research that contributes to the public good, and ASU assumes major responsibility for the economic, social and cultural vitality of the communities that surround it.
When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
