Model Reduction for Multiscale Lithium-Ion Battery Simulation

In this contribution we are concerned with efficient model reduction for multiscale problems arising in lithium-ion battery modeling with spatially resolved porous electrodes. We present new results on the application of the reduced basis method to the resulting instationary 3D battery model that involves strong non-linearities due to Buttler-Volmer kinetics. Empirical operator interpolation is used to efficiently deal with this issue. Furthermore, we present the localized reduced basis multiscale method for parabolic problems applied to a thermal model of batteries with resolved porous electrodes. Numerical experiments are given that demonstrate the reduction capabilities of the presented approaches for these real world applications

Adaptive Parameter Optimization For An Elliptic-Parabolic System Using The Reduced-Basis Method With Hierarchical A-Posteriori Error Analysis

In this paper the authors study a non-linear elliptic-parabolic system, which is motivated by mathematical models for lithium-ion batteries. One state satisfies a parabolic reaction diffusion equation and the other one an elliptic equation. The goal is to determine several scalar parameters in the coupled model in an optimal manner by utilizing a reliable reduced-order approach based on the reduced basis (RB) method. However, the states are coupled through a strongly non-linear function, and this makes the evaluation of online-efficient error estimates difficult. First the well-posedness of the system is proved. Then a Galerkin finite element and RB discretization is described for the coupled system. To certify the RB scheme hierarchical a-posteriori error estimators are utilized in an adaptive trust-region optimization method. Numerical experiments illustrate good approximation properties and efficiencies by using only a relatively small number of reduced bases functions.Comment: 24 pages, 3 figure
