What is Cyber-Physical Co-Simulation Framework for Smart Cells in Scalable Battery Packs about?

This article introduces a Cyber-physical Co-Simulation Framework (CPCSF) for design and analysis of smart cells that enable scalable battery pack and Battery Management System (BMS) architectures. In contrast to conventional cells in battery packs, where all cells are monitored and controlled centrally, each __smart cell__ is equipped with its own electronics in the form of a Cell Management Unit (CMU). The CMU maintains the cell in a safe and healthy operating state, while system-level battery management functions are performed by cooperation of the smart cells via communication. Here, the smart cells collaborate in a self-organizing fashion without a central controller instance. This enables maximum scalability and modularity, significantly simplifying integration of battery packs. However, for this emerging architecture, system-level design methodologies and tools have not been investigated yet. By contrast, components are developed individually and then manually tested in a hardware development platform. Consequently, the systematic design of the hardware/software architecture of smart cells requires a cyber-physical multi-level co-simulation of the network of smart cells that
