  1. 1. Suppression of Li-ion Battery Fires

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Linfan Cai; [2023]
    Keywords : Lithium-ion Battery; Fire Suppression System; Extinguishing Agent; Thermal Runaway; Battery Energy Storage System; Electric Vehicle; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a systematic literature review of fixed fire suppression systems and extinguishing agents for lithium-ion battery (LIB) fires. The review identifies 85 relevant sources published between 2013 and March 2023, and categorises different research experiments into cell-level, module-level, electric vehicle (EV) pack-level, battery energy storage system (BESS) rack-level and warehouse storage experiments, according to LIB configurations.

    Abstract : The increasing drive for sustainable and eco-friendly transportation has made the electrification of cars a top priority in the energy and transportation sectors. Ensuring the safety of electrical vehicle (EV) batteries is of the utmost importance. READ MORE

  3. 3. HEV thermal management of high voltage battery with indirect air cooling and regarding customer performance

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Benjamin Ortéga; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The automotive environment is quickly evolving due to increasingly stringent environmentalstandards and the gradual reduction of the volume of diesel motorized vehicles. The volumes of electrifiedvehicles are thus constantly growing and are brought to be more and more present in our streets. READ MORE

  4. 4. An Empirical Comparison of Static Count Panel Data Models: the Case of Vehicle Fires in Stockholm County

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Svante Pihl; Leonardo Olivetti; [2020]
    Keywords : Low-Mean Count Data; Poisson Regression; Negative-Binomial Regression; Panel Data Models; Vehicle Fires; Distributional Assumptions;

    Abstract : In this paper we study the occurrences of outdoor vehicle fires recorded by the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) for the period 1998-2019, and build static panel data models to predict future occurrences of fire in Stockholm County. Through comparing the performance of different models, we look at the effect of different distributional assumptions for the dependent variable on predictive performance. READ MORE

  5. 5. Topology optimization for distributed consensus in multi-agent networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Johan Niklasson; Oskar Hahr; [2019]
    Keywords : Multi-agent networks; Distributed systems; Wireless Sensor Network; Consensus averaging; Unmanned Aerial Vehicle; Graph-Theory.; Multiagent-nätverk; Distribuerade system; Trådlösa sensornätverk; Konsensusvärde; Drönare; Grafteori.;

    Abstract : Distributed networks, meaning a network in which several agents work together unanimously to perform some task in order to reach goals has become a field with a wide range of applications. One such applications may exist in the form of drones with a purpose of observing and detecting forest fires. READ MORE
