Multi-objective topology optimization of cold plates for enhanced battery thermal management in electric vehicles by Yijun Wang, Minghao Yu, Haiyang Fan, Jae Dong Chung

“…This paper presents a multi-objective topology optimization (TO) approach for designing cold plates in battery thermal management systems (BTMS), with the aim of minimizing both average temperature and power dissipation. The TO model was benchmarked against two established designs: a straight-channel baseline model and the serpentine-channel cold plate used in the GM Volt EV. …”

A numerical study of non-linear crack tip parameters by F.V. Antunes, R. Branco, L. Correia, AL Ramalho

“…Accordingly, 3D-FE numerical models with and without contact were developed for a wide range of loading scenarios and the crack tip parameters usually linked to fatigue crack growth, namely range of cyclic plastic strain, crack tip opening displacement, size of reversed plastic zone and total plastic dissipation per cycle, were investigated. It was demonstrated that: i) LEFM concepts are applicable to the problem under study; ii) the crack closure phenomenon has a great influence on crack tip parameters decreasing their values; iii) the Keff concept is able to explain the variations of crack tip parameters produced by the contact of crack flanks; iv) the analysis of remote compliance is the best numerical parameter to quantify the crack opening level; v) without contact there is no effect of stress ratio on crack tip parameters. …”

Experimental Investigation of Energy Evolution in Sandstone Failure during Triaxial Unloading Confining Pressure Tests by Rui Yang, Depeng Ma, Yongjie Yang

“…The results show that more energy is stored and consumed before the stress reaches its peak, while after the peak stress, more energy is released and consumed. Energy dissipation increases internal cracking, leads to sample damage and lithologic deterioration, and reduces the bearing capacity of the sample. …”
