This project develops advanced mechanical metamaterials to enhance battery safety in electric vehicles by preventing thermal runaway during collisions. These lightweight materials aim to improve vehicle efficiency while potentially being applicable in other high-tech industries such as aerospace.
Preventing thermal run-away (resulting in fire) of batteries in electrical vehicles which can result from impingement of the protecting battery box during side impact collisions is a critical design consideration for vehicle safety.
This challenge requires a careful trade-off between the shock-absorbing capabilities and the lightness of the material to ensure both safety and efficiency in vehicle design.
We have developed a new class of mechanical metamaterials that are lightweight and highly di…
