... the analysis of the references [13,[25][26][27][28], the degradation, as a rate of loss of capacity, can be modeled as a nonlinear function of temperature, charge/discharge current rate and depth of discharge (DoD). Tests conducted in [28] point to a high correlation between the degradation rate and State of Health (SoH) regulation range, 100% to 80%, with a linear fitting, as presented in Figure 1. Considering the degradation versus SoH linear, it is possible to assume that SoH does not affect the degradation phenomena itself. ...

The systematic transition of conventional automobiles to their electrified counterparts is an imperative step toward successful decarbonization. Crucial advances in battery storage systems (BSS) and related technologies will enable this transition to proceed smoothly. This requires equivalent developments in several interconnected areas, such as complete battery cycles and battery management systems (BMS). In this context, this article critically examines state-of-the-art battery technologies from the perspective of automakers, provides insightful discussions, and poses open questions with possible answers. The generations of BSS (traditional, current, and futuristic) are first reviewed and analyzed via two distinct qualitative factors (DQFs): key design markers and performance indicators. Based on the introduced DQFs, major development trends and probable evolutions are forecasted. Thereafter, recent modeling and state estimation methods are comprehensively reviewed in relation to high-performance BMS. Accordingly, promising modeling methods are identified as futuristic solutions, leading to an accurate and timely decision for reliable and safer user experience. This article is concluded by presenting a techno-economic assessment of what to expect, as well as highlighting future challenges and opportunities for industry, academia, and policy makers.

Hybrid electric air-ground vehicles (HEAGVs), which can run on the land and fly in the air, are considered a promising future transportation. The operation of HEAGVs, accompanied by high energy consumption, could lead to increasing battery temperature, which may affect the lifespan of the battery. To make the battery last longer and improve energy efficiency, an effective energy management strategy (EMS) is necessary for the operation of HEAGVs. In this regard, this paper proposes a predictive EMS based on model predictive control (MPC). Firstly, speed information is obtained by intelligent network technology to achieve a prediction of power demand, and then the state of charge (SOC) reference trajectory is planned. Secondly, a Pontryagin’s minimum principle-based model predictive control (PMP-MPC) framework is proposed, including battery thermal dynamics. Under the framework, fuel efficiency is improved by reducing the temperature of the battery. Finally, the proposed method is compared to PMP, dynamic programming (DP), and rule-based (RB) methods. The effect of different preview horizon sizes on fuel economy and battery temperature is analyzed. Verification results under two driving cycles indicate that compared with the rule-based method, the proposed method improves fuel economy by 5.14% and 5.2% and decreases the temperature by 5.9% and 4.9%, respectively. The results demonstrate that the proposed PMP-MPC method can effectively improve fuel economy and reduce temperature.
