Parameter estimation is of foundational importance for various model-based battery management tasks, including charging control, state-of-charge estimation and aging assessment. However, it remains a challenging issue as the existing methods generally depend on cumbersome and time-consuming procedures to extract battery parameters from data. Departing from the literature, this paper sets the unique aim of identifying all the parameters offline in a one-shot procedure, including the resistance and capacitance parameters and the parameters in the parameterized function mapping from the state-of-charge to the open-circuit voltage. Considering the well-known Thevenins battery model, the study begins with the parameter identifiability analysis, showing that all the parameters are locally identifiable. Then, it formulates the parameter identification problem in a prediction-error-minimization framework. As the non-convexity intrinsic to the problem may lead to physically meaningless estimates, two methods are developed to overcome this issue. The first one is to constrain the parameter search within a reasonable space by setting parameter bounds, and the other adopts regularization of the cost function using prior parameter guess. The proposed identifiability analysis and identification methods are extensively validated through simulations and experiments.

Identification of abnormal source hidden in distributed parameter systems (DPSs) belongs to the category of inverse source problems. It is important in industrial applications but seldom studied. In this paper, we make the first attempt to investigate the abnormal spatio-temporal (S-T) source identification for a class of DPSs. An inverse S-T model for abnormal source identification is developed for the first time. It consists of an adaptive state observer for source identification and an adaptive source estimation algorithm. One major advantage of the proposed inverse S-T model is that only the system output is utilized, without any state measurement. Theoretic analysis is conducted to guarantee the convergence of the estimation error. Finally, the performance of the proposed method is evaluated on a heat transfer rod with an abnormal S-T source.
Active learning is proposed for selection of the next operating points in the design of experiments, for identifying linear parameter-varying systems. We extend existing approaches found in literature to multiple-input multiple-output systems with a multivariate scheduling parameter. Our approach is based on exploiting the probabilistic features of Gaussian process regression to quantify the overall model uncertainty across locally identified models. This results in a flexible framework which accommodates for various techniques to be applied for estimation of local linear models and their corresponding uncertainty. We perform active learning in application to the identification of a diesel engine air-path model, and demonstrate that measures of model uncertainty can be successfully reduced using the proposed framework.
This paper proposes a new equivalent circuit model for rechargeable batteries by modifying a double-capacitor model proposed in [1]. It is known that the original model can address the rate capacity effect and energy recovery effect inherent to batteries better than other models. However, it is a purely linear model and includes no representation of a batterys nonlinear phenomena. Hence, this work transforms the original model by introducing a nonlinear-mapping-based voltage source and a serial RC circuit. The modification is justified by an analogy with the single-particle model. Two parameter estimation approaches, termed 1.0 and 2.0, are designed for the new model to deal with the scenarios of constant-current and variable-current charging/discharging, respectively. In particular, the 2.0 approach proposes the notion of Wiener system identification based on maximum a posteriori estimation, which allows all the parameters to be estimated in one shot while overcoming the nonconvexity or local minima issue to obtain physically reasonable estimates. An extensive experimental evaluation shows that the proposed model offers excellent accuracy and predictive capability. A comparison against the Rint and Thevenin models further points to its superiority. With high fidelity and low mathematical complexity, this model is beneficial for various real-time battery management applications.
The goal of this paper is the experimental validation of a gray-box equivalent modeling approach applied to microgrids. The main objective of the equivalent modeling is to represent the dynamic response of a microgrid with a simplified model. The main contribution of this work is the experimental validation of a two-step process, composed by the definition of a nonlinear equivalent model with operational constraints, adapted to the microgrid environment, and the identification procedure used to define the model parameters. Once the parameters are identified, the simplified model is ready to reproduce the microgrid behavior to voltage and frequency variations, in terms of active and reactive power exchanges at the point of common coupling. To validate the proposed approach, a set of experimental tests have been carried out on a real LV microgrid considering different configurations, including both grid-connected and islanded operating conditions. Results show the effectiveness of the proposed technique and the applicability of the model to perform dynamic simulations.
Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have become one of the most attractive alternatives over conventional Li-ion batteries due to their high theoretical specific energy density (2500 Wh/kg for Li-S vs. $sim$250 Wh/kg for Li-ion). Accurate state estimation in Li-S batteries is urgently needed for safe and efficient operation. To the best of the authors knowledge, electrochemical model-based observers have not been reported for Li-S batteries, primarily due to the complex dynamics that make state observer design a challenging problem. In this work, we demonstrate a state estimation scheme based on a zero-dimensional electrochemical model for Li-S batteries. The nonlinear differential-algebraic equation (DAE) model is incorporated into an extend Kalman filter. This observer design estimates both differential and algebraic states that represent the dynamic behavior inside the cell, from voltage and current measurements only. The effectiveness of the proposed estimation algorithm is illustrated by numerical simulation results. Our study unlocks how an electrochemical model can be utilized for practical state estimation of Li-S batteries.
