TY  - JOUR
AB - <jats:p> Many different degradation mechanisms occur in lithium-ion batteries, all of which interact with one another [1]. However, there are few fewer observable consequences of degradation than there are mechanisms [2]. It is possible to measure the different degradation modes: loss of lithium inventory (LLI), loss of active material (LAM), impedance change and stoichiometric drift [3].</jats:p> <jats:p>It is not always possible to link these observable consequences of degradation to any particular mechanism or combination of mechanisms. Many models of degradation exist [4], but these models have many parameters that cannot be measured directly. A recent modelling study [5] found the number of parameters that the model is sensitive to is greater than the number of observable degradation modes.</jats:p> <jats:p>However, the same model [5], despite including just four degradation mechanisms, found five possible degradation pathways a battery can follow. The model was built so that more mechanisms can easily be added later, so more pathways will be found.</jats:p> <jats:p>In this work, a new approach to diagnosing battery degradation is proposed, based on these pathways. Experimental data for the degradation modes can be identified as being consistent with a particular pathway. Once the correct pathway is found, the parameters that particular pathway is sensitive to can be fit to the data, feeding back into the model.</jats:p> <jats:p>[1] Jacqueline Edge <jats:italic>et al.</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Phys.
