The battery at the impact location increased the impact energy absorption of both the laminate and sandwich composite due to its capacity to yield and plastically deform. Impact-induced damage reduced the compressive properties of the composite laminate and sandwich composite in part due to deformation, cracking and debonding of the battery.
It is an important safety issue to understand whether embedded batteries alter the energy absorption properties of composites in the event of vehicle collision. It is also desirable that the composite structure provide sufficient impact damage tolerance to prevent battery leakage or thermal runaway .
Minor damages to the embedded batteries caused by impact loadings (such as mechanical damage to separators or electrodes) without catastrophic consequences (including ISC and heat generation) may lead to changes in battery electrochemical performance [32, 33].
While the influence of embedded batteries on the mechanical properties of composite laminates and sandwich composites have been studied , , , , , , their effect on the impact damage tolerance is not yet well known.
A stranded ESS battery, which is commonly found after an ESS fire has been extinguished and the battery terminals have been damaged, poses a shock hazard to those working with the damaged ESS. It still contains an unknown amount of electrical energy, and this stranded energy can also lead to reignition of a fire within minutes, hours, or even days after the initial event.
Abusing a battery can result in an inoperable Energy Storage System (ESS). It can also lead to overheating, fire, and explosion. Mechanical abuse occurs when the battery is physically compromised, such as when it is crushed, dropped, penetrated, or otherwise distorted to failure by mechanical force.
