  • Publication number: 20240175927
    Abstract: A method for calculating a terminal voltage of a lithium battery based on an electrochemical model, an apparatus, and a medium are provided. The method includes: constructing the electrochemical model of the lithium battery, and dividing the lithium-ion battery into three domains comprising an anode domain, a separator domain, and a cathode domain; numerically simulating the electrochemical model in the three domains respectively using the Chebyshev spectral method, and respectively obtaining distribution data of a liquid-phase potential, overpotential, and open-circuit voltage of the anode and the cathode; obtaining solid-phase potential distribution data of the anode and the cathode, based on discrete data of the liquid-phase potential, overpotential, and open-circuit voltage of the anode and the cathode; and obtaining the terminal voltage of the lithium battery based on the solid-phase potential distribution data of the anode and cathode.

  • Patent number: 10609511
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for enhancing online or digital platforms by enabling them to intelligently suggest physical meeting locations to one or more users of the platforms. In one embodiment, a method includes detecting an intent of a first user to meet at a physical location based upon messages exchanged between the first user and a second user via a messaging platform, selecting a list of physical locations from a pre-configured list of physical locations based upon information associated with the first user, and causing the list of physical locations to be displayed to the first user. In response to receiving information indicating selection of a first physical location from the list of physical locations from the first user, information identifying the first physical location can be displayed to the second user for the second user to accept or reject the first physical location.
