Grinding-stimulated fluorescence enhancement in carbon nanoparticles/poly(vinyl chloride) composite

The physical damage of engineering materials is challenging to perceive, particularly when they occur with only a slight extent. To present the location of damage to engineering is still difficult to achieve. Mechanical responsive engineering materials are therefore highly desired. Herein, a type of composites comprised of carbon nanoparticles (CNP) and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) was prepared via a heating incubation process. Notably, we found that these composites were in a metastable state and exhibited a grinding-stimulated fluorescence enhancement performance. After grinding stimulation, a bright orange-yellow color emission appeared and the fluorescence intensity of the composites exhibited a 75-fold enhancement. It was noted that grinding had no effect on the fluorescence of CNP alone. The fluorescence enhancement may be due to the change in the surface environment of CNP, as grinding facilitates the entry of CNP into PVC. In addition, fluorescence enhancement was also observed in tightening screw experiments using commercialized PVC films, demonstrating the abrasive-stimulated fluorescence enhancement properties of this CNP/PVC. Such remarkable mechanical response property and interesting combination between CNP and PVC will provide avenue to promote the development of smart engineering materials and have considerable potentials in external force response and structure damage surveying.

Influence of arch action on load-carrying capacity of double-sized industrial precast slabs: A combined numerical and experimental study

The precast industry offers slab panels of different geometries according to the field conditions. These slab panels are popular in temporary constructions and beneficial in sustainability but have some financial limitations and local constraints. For a long time, the construction industry has used the arch action method, which restricts the stresses to the compression zone in concrete members and develops the required load-carrying capacity. For the same motives, industrial buildings have preferred semi-circular precast roofs, but the morphology was not suitable. For the proposed slab in this research, firstly, the typical industrial precast slab panel was doubled in width to minimize the time and efforts required for its casting, curing, and placement. Secondly, that doubled-in-width slab was provided with the arch action to confine the stresses to compression and benefit from the section entirely. Lastly, the top of the slab was kept flat to take advantage of the roof space. All these changes aimed for structural stability, reduced material's weight, improved load-carrying capacity, appropriate mobilization, and financial viability. A numerical approach and practical testing were adopted using the finite element modeling software, ABAQUS, to analyze load–deflection responses of both slabs through the concrete damage plasticity model. The proposed slab exhibited better performance as its capacity enhanced by about 1.5 times that of a typical slab. Although the volume of the material in the proposed slab increased slightly from 0.040 m3 to 0.045 m3, the reductions in joint filler materials, reinforcements, and efforts required for mixing and lifting machinery compensated for this increase significantly. Hence, the slab can be recommended for the industry to save the costs while taking heavier loads efficiently.

Simulative investigation of the required level of geometrical individualization of the lumbar spines to predict fractures.

Injury mechanisms of the lumbar spine under dynamic loading are dependent on spine curvature and anatomical variation. Impact simulation with finite element (FE) models can assist the reconstruction and prediction of injuries. The objective of this study was to determine which level of individualization of a baseline FE lumbar spine model is necessary to replicate experimental responses and fracture locations in a dynamic experiment.Experimental X-rays from 26 dynamic drop tower tests were used to create three configurations of a lumbar spine model (T12 to L5): baseline, with aligned vertebrae (positioned), and with aligned and morphed vertebrae (morphed). Each model was simulated with the corresponding loading and boundary conditions from dynamic lumbar spine experiments. Force, moment, and kinematic responses were compared to the experimental data. Cosine similarity was computed to assess how well simulation responses match the experimental data. The pressure distribution within the vertebrae was used to compare fracture risk and fracture location between the different models.The positioned models replicated the injured spinal level and the fracture patterns quite well, though the morphed models provided slightly more accuracy. However, for impact reconstruction or injury prediction, the authors recommend pure positioning for whole-body models, as the gain in accuracy was relatively small, while the morphing modifications of the model require considerably higher efforts. These results improve the understanding of the application of human body models to investigate lumbar injury mechanisms with FE models.

Improved pseudostatic analysis of pile response to seismic ground movement: Multiple characteristic ground displacement profiles

Piles may be subjected to significant kinematic loading from ground movement under earthquakes. Pseudostatic analysis, which is based on the Winker beam model, traditionally adopts a single ground displacement profile, known as the characteristic ground displacement profile, for assessments of pile response under this loading condition. This study conducts dynamic analyses with different soil, pile-head-fixity, and seismic conditions and generates displacement, moment, and shear force response envelopes to evaluate the appropriateness of the characteristic displacement profiles of four common methods. These methods give inconsistent predictions because the maximum responses at different depths in the pile response envelopes occur at different points in time. To address this issue, we propose using multiple characteristic ground displacement profiles, which are determined by the maximum ground relative deformation or rotation. These multiple profiles, when used in pseudostatic analyses, give consistent predictions with dynamic pile response envelopes in most scenarios, thus overcoming the limitations of conventional single-profile methods.

The Northeast Water Polynya, Greenland: Climatology, Atmospheric Forcing and Ocean Response

AbstractThe Northeast Water Polynya is a significant annually recurring summertime Arctic polynya, located off the coast of Northeast Greenland. It is important for marine wildlife and affects local atmospheric and oceanic processes. In this study, over 40 years of observational and reanalysis products (ERA5 and ORAS5) are analyzed to characterize the polynya's climatology and ascertain forcing mechanisms. The Northeast Water Polynya has high spatiotemporal variability; its location, size and structure vary interannually, and the period for which it is open is changing. We show this variability is largely driven by atmospheric forcing. The polynya extent is determined by the direction of the near‐surface flow regime, and the relative locations of high and low sea‐level pressure centers over the region. The surface conditions also impact the oceanic water column, which has a strong seasonal cycle in potential temperature and salinity, the amplitude of which decreases with depth. The ocean reanalyses also show a significant warming trend at all depths and a freshening near the surface consistent with greater ice melt, but salinification at lower depths (∼200 m). As the Arctic region changes due to anthropogenic forcing, the sea‐ice edge is migrating northwards and the Northeast Water Polynya is generally opening earlier and closing later in the year. This could have significant implications for both the atmosphere and ocean in this complex and rapidly changing environment.

Elastoacoustic wave propagation in a biphasic mechanical metamateriala).

Humans are sensitive to air-borne sound as well as to mechanical vibrations propagating in solids in the frequency range below 20 kHz. Therefore, the development of multifunctional filters for both vibration reduction and sound insulation within the frequency range of human sensitivity is a research topic of primary interest. In this paper, a high-contrast biphasic mechanical metamaterial, composed of periodic elastic solid cells with air-filled voids, is presented. By opening intercellular air-communicating channels and introducing channel-bridging solid-solid couplings, the frequency dispersion spectrum of the metamaterial can be modified to achieve complete and large bandgaps for acoustic and elastic waves. From a methodological viewpoint, the eigenproblem governing the free wave propagation is solved using a hybrid analytical-computational technique, while the waveform classification is based on polarization factors expressing the fraction of kinetic and elastic energies stored in the solid and fluid phases. Based on these theoretical results, a mechanical metafilter consisting of an array of a finite number of metamaterial cells is conceived to provide a technical solution for engineering applications. The forced response of the metafilter is virtually tested in a computational framework to assess its performance in passively controlling the propagation of broadband sound and vibration signals within solid and fluid environments. Quantitative results synthesized by transmission coefficients demonstrate that the metafilter can remarkably reduce the transmitted response in the frequency band of human sensitivity.

Thermal-force response analysis and applicability evaluation of strata energy shaft in Shanghai

Energy underground structures, such as energy shafts and tunnels, are a class of energy-saving and environmentally-friendly underground structures. They can be used as shallow geothermal energy harvesting systems for heat exchanges with the ground. Theoretical research and practical applications of energy shafts are still in the initial stages, and related tests are still relatively few. This study used the Shanghai Taihe energy shaft test section as the research background. The results of the thermal force response test of the energy shaft was numerically analyzed using the COMSOL software and compared with that of Beijing Qinghuayuan energy tunnel for applicability evaluation and analysis. The results show that the Shanghai strata energy shaft has a better heat transfer capacity than the Beijing strata energy tunnel owing to the different geological environments and is more economical. Simultaneously, the temperature stress generated in the heat transfer process of the Shanghai Strata energy shaft was smaller than that of the Beijing strata energy tunnel, which is safer. Therefore, underground energy structures can be widely applied to the Shanghai strata, which can significantly improve economic applicability while ensuring safety.

Quantifying Contributions of External Forcing and Internal Variability to Arctic Warming During 1900–2021

AbstractArctic warming has significant environmental and social impacts. Arctic long‐term warming trend is modulated by decadal‐to‐multidecadal variations. Improved understanding of how different external forcings and internal variability affect Arctic surface air temperature (SAT) is crucial for explaining and predicting Arctic climate changes. We analyze multiple observational data sets and large ensembles of climate model simulations to quantify the contributions of specific external forcings and various modes of internal variability to Arctic SAT changes during 1900–2021. We find that the long‐term trend and total variance in Arctic‐mean SAT since 1900 are largely forced responses, including warming due to greenhouse gases and natural forcings and cooling due to anthropogenic aerosols. In contrast, internal variability dominates the early 20th century Arctic warming and mid‐20th century Arctic cooling. Internal variability also explains ∼40% of the recent Arctic warming from 1979 to 2021. Unforced changes in Arctic SAT are largely attributed to two leading modes. The first is pan‐Arctic warming with stronger loading over the Eurasian sector, accounting for 70% of the unforced variance and closely related to the positive phase of the unforced Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO). The second mode exhibits relatively weak warming averaged over the entire Arctic with warming over the North American‐Pacific sector and cooling over the Atlantic sector, explaining 10% of the unforced variance and likely caused by the positive phase of the unforced Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation (IPO). The AMO‐related changes dominate the unforced Arctic warming since 1979, while the IPO‐related changes contribute to the decadal SAT changes over the North American‐Pacific Arctic.

Vibro-acoustic coupling analysis of dynamic performance of the double panel system with mechanical links

The theoretical prediction model for the dynamic performance of a double panel system that takes into account the effect of mechanical links is developed in this paper. The double panel system is established considering both the vibro-acoustic coupling and the effect of the mechanical links between two flexible panels. Firstly, the modal characteristics of the double panel system are analyzed and compared with the results calculated by the finite element method. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed model have been validated. Subsequently, the forced response of the double panel system under different external excitations is studied. It is shown that the mechanical link resulted in less response level of the double panel system in in low frequency range due to the structural path in the energy transmission of the double panel system. Finally, the effect of the mechanical link parameters on the dynamic performance of the double panel system is discussed. The results reveal that the stiffness coefficients, location distributions, and number of mechanical links can significantly influence the dynamic behavior of the double panel system. Therefore, the theoretical model can be used in optimization techniques to improve the sound transmission characteristics of the double panel system.

Crushing Response and Optimization of a Modified 3D Re-Entrant Honeycomb.

A modified 3D re-entrant honeycomb is designed and fabricated utilizing Laser Cladding Deposition (LCD) technology, the mechanical properties of which are systematically investigated by experimental and finite element (FE) methods. Firstly, the influences of honeycomb angle on localized deformation and the response of force are studied by an experiment. Experimental results reveal that the honeycomb angles have a significant effect on deformation and force. Secondly, a series of numerical studies are conducted to analyze stress characteristics and energy absorption under different angles (α) and velocities (v). It is evident that two variables play an important role in stress and energy. Thirdly, response surface methodology (RSM) and the Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) are implemented with high precision to solve multi-objective optimization. Finally, the final compromise solution is determined based on the fitness function, with an angle of 49.23° and an impact velocity of 16.40 m/s. Through simulation verification, the errors of energy absorption (EA) and peak crush stress (PCS) are 9.26% and 0.4%, respectively. The findings of this study offer valuable design guidance for selecting the optimal design parameters under the same mass conditions to effectively enhance the performance of the honeycomb.

Damping prediction of highly dissipative meta-structures through a wave finite element methodology

Aiming at accurately predicting the global Damping Loss Factor (DLF) for Highly Dissipative Structures (HDS), the current study uses the Wave Finite Element (WFE) methodology. It starts by deriving the forced responses of a Unit Cell (UC) representative of the periodic meta-structure. Then it computes the DLF of the wave via the power balance. The Bloch expansion is employed. The response to a point force applied to the periodic structure is decomposed in the Brillouin zone, allowing the prediction via integration over the wavespace. The global DLF is derived based on the Power Input Method (PIM). The accuracy of the methodology is demonstrated through several cases from simple panels to complex meta-structures. For HDS, results of General Laminated Model (GLM) is exploited for wave DLF and PIM based on Finite Element Method (FEM) data is provided as reference approach for global DLF. The study discusses the influence of bending waves on the DLF estimation for HDS. A final case study with a meta-structure is also offered. The later consists of a doubly periodic coated sphere in a host rubber, it demonstrates the importance of Bloch modes.

Variable Universe Fuzzy-Proportional-Integral-Differential-Based Braking Force Control of Electro-Mechanical Brakes for Mine Underground Electric Trackless Rubber-Tired Vehicles.

Currently, the main solution for braking systems for underground electric trackless rubber-tired vehicles (UETRVs) is traditional hydraulic braking systems, which have the disadvantages of hydraulic pressure crawling, the risk of oil leakage and a high maintenance cost. An electro-mechanical-braking (EMB) system, as a type of novel brake-by-wire (BBW) system, can eliminate the above shortcomings and play a significant role in enhancing the intelligence level of the braking system in order to meet the motion control requirements of unmanned UETRVs. Among these requirements, the accurate control of clamping force is a key technology in controlling performance and the practical implementation of EMB systems. In order to achieve an adaptive clamping force control performance of an EMB system, an optimized fuzzy proportional-integral-differential (PID) controller is proposed, where the improved fuzzy algorithm is utilized to adaptively adjust the gain parameters of classic PID. In order to compensate for the deficiency of single-close-loop control and adjusting the brake gap automatically, a cascaded three-closed-loop control architecture with force/position switch technology is established, where a contact point detection method utilizing motor rotor angle displacement is proposed via experiments. The results of the simulation and experiments indicate that the clamping force response of the proposed multi-close-loop Variable Universe Fuzzy-PID (VUF-PID) controller is faster than the multi-closed-loop Fuzzy-PID and cascaded three-close-loop PID controllers. In addition, the chattering of braking force can be suppressed by 17%. This EMB system may rapidly and automatically finish the operation of the overall braking process, including gap elimination, clamping force tracking and gap recovery, which can obviously enhance the precision of the longitudinal motion control of UETRVs. It can thus serve as a BBW actuator of mine autonomous driving electric vehicles, especially in the stage of braking control.

The phenomenon of anticipation in fencing. An applicability approach.

The aim of the study was to determine the structure of muscular activity and ground reaction forces during the preparatory period and the execution of a fencing lunge at the opponent's torso. The analysis focused on the correlations between three phases of a fencing technical action in the context of factors of temporal anticipation. Six female épée fencers from the Polish National Fencing Team participated in the study. The research tools included electromyography (EMG), ground reaction force (GRF) platforms, and the OptiTrack motion capture system. The fencers performed the lunge three times in response to visual cues from the coach. By integrating the testing system, the EMG signal indices of the fencers' upper and lower limbs and the vertical force values of the fencers' front and rear leg muscles were obtained simultaneously. The results of the study demonstrated the key role of five muscles: BICEPS BRACHII, LAT TRICEPS, EXTCARP RAD, BICEPS FEMORIS and MED GAS in influencing the speed of lunge execution. In addition, a significant correlation was found between the EMG signal of the gastrocnemius muscle of the rear leg and the movement time (MT) phase of the lunge execution. The anticipatory activation of the EMG signal in relation to the vertical force waveforms generated by the ground forces response platform in the 15-30 ms interval was demonstrated. Finally, the importance of the preparatory period for the effectiveness of the fencing lunge was highlighted based on the phenomenon of anticipation.

A deterministic energy method for predicting the response of coupled finite structures

The forced response of finite, thin rectangular plates coupled by a line joint can be predicted using well-established analytical methods. However, such methods become difficult to implement for thick panels coupled by complex joints. In these cases, the finite element (FE) method and conventional statistical energy analysis (SEA) are viable alternatives. However, the FE method can be time-consuming at mid/high frequencies while SEA involves various approximations and assumptions. This paper develops a deterministic energy method for predicting the forced response of coupled complex panels based on a hybrid finite element/wave finite element (WFE) method, modelling the panels as coupled wave-bearing subsystems. The method involves meshing only a small segment of the panel and the joint using finite elements, and is able to model complex structures such as laminated panels and joints with low computational cost. Excitations of the structure by a time-harmonic point force and the rain-on-the-roof excitations are both considered. The wave subsystem energy and power flow formulations corresponding to these excitations are derived to be the sum of wave components. The energy/power formulations are then used for establishing an SEA-like model for predicting the coupling data between the subsystems. Numerical examples of two thin, rectangular plates coupled by an “L” shaped joint and coupled practical cross-laminated-timber (CLT) panels connected by L-shaped joints with/without an elastic layer are presented to illustrate this method. Wave subsystem energy and power transmission between subsystems are calculated for the coupled structures. The normalised energy responses of the coupled CLT panels are also calculated and compared with measurements. Good agreement between the predictions and the measurements is achieved.

Insight into single-helix intelligent shape memory polymer cables: modeling and optimization under finite sliding contact

This pioneering study focuses on the finite element analysis (FEA) of thermomechanical properties of shape memory polymer (SMP) wire ropes and their components under both small- and finite-sliding contact deformation. To validate the FEA, we need to validate both geometric modeling and non-linear material behavior. Owing to intricate geometry, as well as excessive wire interactions in the structure, this part is studied by simulating a 1 × 37 steel wire rope and then comparing it with existing experimental data. To evaluate the response of non-linear material behavior, we employ the available numerical results to model the thermomechanical property of an SMP rectangular bar under a uniaxial test and then verify both constrained and unconstrained recovery behavior. After rigorous validation, two configurations of 1 × 7 and 1 × 27 SMP cables are modeled based on the thermo-visco-hyperelastic constitutive framework for acrylate polymer systems. Upon exerting an axially tensile load on these 1 × 7 and 1 × 27 SMP wire ropes, the response of force and shape recovery, as well as the normal and shear stress distributions, are measured under constrained and unconstrained conditions. For a deeper physical understanding, the influences of different temperature rates (5 and 1 °C min−1), inter-wire sliding frictional coefficient (0.1–0.6), and multiple-shape programming on the stress-strain-temperature relations of these SMP cables are also investigated. Furthermore, based on optimizing two cable factors of diameter and helix angle, and using the design of experiments method, the specific energy of a 1 × 6 SMP cable is maximized. Under different thermomechanical loadings, this study tries to cast light on the remarkable features and possible potential applications of these newly developed SMP actuators which may foster unparalleled advancements in various industries.

Influence of local scour on the dynamic response of bridges under barge collisions

The response assessment of bridges crossing navigable waterways under vessel collisions is commonly conducted assuming intact bridge models. However, local scour may occur at bridge foundations, which has been identified as one of the major hydraulic causes of bridge failures. Therefore, it is imperative to consider local scour in the design and analysis of bridges against vessel collisions. Many previous studies have focused on the bridge response under vessel collisions assuming deterministic scour depths with incremental values, without integrating a scour prediction modeling in the analysis. This work investigates the barge-bridge collisions in the presence of scour at pile foundations, by using empirical scour prediction models. The accuracy of each prediction model is evaluated using relevant laboratory test and field measurement records. Finite element (FE) models of a four-span continuous reinforced concrete (RC) bridge and a jumbo hopper barge are developed in LS-DYNA. The current study identifies the correlation between the upstream flow depth and the barge collision location in the analyses. Numerical results illustrate that both scour depth and collision location influence the displacement, shear force, and bending moment response of bridge piles. The struck bridge pier accommodates a considerably increased displacement with an increased scour depth, while the shear force and bending moment are primarily influenced by the collision location. The influence of scour on the barge-pier collision force is marginal. The maximum axial force in soil springs increases considerably with scour depth. The choice of scour prediction model shows a significant impact on the displacement, shear force, bending moment of piles, the displacement of struck pier, and the axial force of soil springs.

Modular approximate discrete modeling for blisk system with triple closed-loop equivalence method

At present, the lumped-parametric model is often used in the preliminary design of bladed disks. However, the lack of systematic modeling methods leads to high errors. In order to develop the systematic modeling method and improve the equivalence accuracy, this paper considers the comprehensive equivalence from the aspects of natural characteristics, transient forced responses, and steady-state forced responses under aerodynamic excitations. This paper includes two novelties. First, based on the modular equation of blisk system, an approximate discrete model is derived for computational efficiency. Second, a triple closed-loop equivalence method with modal weight optimization is developed innovatively for optimal equivalence parameters. The method can significantly improve the accuracy of element parameters in the lumped-parametric model and achieve the comprehensive equivalence to actual blisk. Compared with the existing equivalence method, the average errors of natural frequencies in the whole mode interval and in the high-density mode interval are reduced by 41.75 % and 36.76 %, respectively. The maximum and average displacement errors of the transient response are reduced by 51.76 % and 58.98 %, respectively. Furthermore, vibration characteristics of the mass and stiffness mistuned blisks are analyzed under traveling wake excitation during acceleration and deceleration processes by approximate discrete model and determined parameters.

Nonlinear response to contact impact on the surface of an aluminum alloy AlMg6 exhibiting the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect

Intermittent plastic flow known as the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect is a pronounced nonlinear phenomenon in a material science. One of the traditional approaches to the study of nonlinear system is to identify and analyze its responses to an external impulsive action. In the present work, the influence of impact indentation on the evolution of the spatio-temporal patterns of localized strain in an AlMg alloy deformed under the Portevin-Le Chatelier effect is studied with using an acoustic emission technique and high-speed video recording of propagating deformation bands. Dynamic and nonlinear responses to impact indentation of the surface of an alloy deformed by uniaxial tension above the conditional yield strength are revealed; the first include high values of dynamic hardness and local strain and loading rates, while the second involve the threshold and multiple nature of the force and acoustic responses. It has been established that there is a threshold impact energy of the indenter at which an induced strain jump of minimum amplitude occurs, accompanied by the formation of bands of macrolocalized plastic deformation. The conditions are established under which the work of plastic deformation during the development of the induced strain jump significantly, by more than two orders of magnitude, exceeds the energy of the initiating impact, which acts only as a trigger for the “premature” release of the elastic energy accumulated in the material before the moment of impact. It is shown that the impact-induced bands of macrolocalized deformation represent a hidden three-dimensional type of erosion damage that reduces the mechanical stability and durability of the alloy. A phenomenological model is proposed for the formation of bands, strain jumps, and bursts of acoustic emission induced by an indenter impact, which qualitatively explains the experimental results obtained in the work.

Improving Aeromechanical Performance of Compressor Rotor Blisk with Topology Optimization

When it comes to modern design of turbomachinery, one of the most critical objectives is to achieve higher efficiency and performance by reducing weight, fuel consumption, and noise emissions. This implies the need for reducing the mass and number of the components, by designing thinner, lighter, and more loaded blades. These choices may lead to mechanical issues caused by the fluid–structure interaction, such as flutter and forced response. Due to the periodic aerodynamic loading in rotating components, preventing or predicting resonances is essential to avoid or limit the dangerous vibration of the blades; thus, simulation methods are crucial to study such conditions during the machine design. The purpose of this paper is to assess a numerical approach based on a topology optimization method for the innovative design of a compressor rotor. A fluid-structural optimization process has been applied to a rotor blisk which belongs to a one-and-a-half-stage aeronautical compressor including static and dynamic loads coming from blade rotation and fluid flow interaction. The fluid forcing is computed by some CFD TRAF code, and it is processed via time and space discrete Fourier transform to extract the pressure fluctuation components in a cyclic-symmetry environment. Finally, a topological optimization of the disk is performed, and the encouraging results are presented and discussed. The remarkable mass reduction in the component (≈32%), the mode-shape frequency shift from a fluid forcing frequency, and an overall relevant reduction in the dynamic response around Campbell’s crossing confirm the efficacy of the presented methodology.

Experimental analysis and safety assessment of thermal runaway behavior in lithium iron phosphate batteries under mechanical abuse

Mechanical abuse can lead to internal short circuits and thermal runaway in lithium-ion batteries, causing severe harm. Therefore, this paper systematically investigates the thermal runaway behavior and safety assessment of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries under mechanical abuse through experimental research. Mechanical abuse experiments are conducted under different conditions and battery state of charge (SOC), capturing force, voltage, and temperature responses during failure. Subsequently, characteristic parameters of thermal runaway behavior are extracted. Further, mechanical abuse conditions are quantified, and the relationship between experimental conditions and battery characteristic parameters is analyzed. Finally, regression models for battery safety boundaries and the degree of thermal runaway risk are established. The research results indicate that the extracted characteristic parameters effectively reflect internal short circuit (ISC) and thermal runaway behaviors, and the regression models provide a robust description of the battery's safety boundaries and thermal runaway risk degree. This work sheds light on understanding thermal runaway behavior and safety assessment methods for lithium-ion cells under mechanical abuse.
