Practicing engineers, BMS manufacturers, project managers, BMS designers for land-based applications (power utilities, distributed energy companies, automotive industry), battery chemists, material-scientists and mathematical modelers, battery researchers and educators.

This second volume discusses state-of-the-art applications of equivalent-circuit models as they pertain to solving problems in battery management and control. Readers are provided information on how to use models from Volume I to control battery packs, along with discussion of fundamental flaws in current approaches. In addition, Volume II introduces the ideas of physics-based optimal battery controls and explains why they can be superior to the state-of-the-art equivalent-circuit controls.
