    Research and Teaching Interest

    My research is focused on the lithium-ion battery prognostics and health management for electric vehicles. Due to the intrinsic physical-chemistry reaction mechanism, onboard lithium-ion batteries have to be protected from thermal runaway and fast degradation. Model-based state estimation methods are used to monitor and predict electrical, mechanical, and thermal behaviors of lithium-ion battery. In the use of advanced adaptive filters, recursive least squares and Kalman filtering approaches are developed to get batteries state-of-charge (SOC), state-of-health (SOH), and state-of-power (SOP) adaptive to their operating conditions.

    Electric vehicles are powered by the DC electricity. Power electronics is the core technology to get electric vehicles efficient and low cost. How to conversion between DC and AC sources with high efficiency, high EMC, and high power density is adopted in my lectures to get students know how to develop electric vehicles better.
