Abstract: In an example of a method for enhancing the performance of a silicon-based negative electrode, the silicon-based negative electrode is pre-lithiated in an electrolyte including a lithium salt dissolved in a solvent mixture of dimethoxyethane (DME) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC). The DME and FEC are present in a volume to volume ratio ranging from 10 to 1 to 1 to 10. The pre-lithiation forms a stable solid electrolyte interface layer on an exposed surface of the negative electrode.

Abstract: A method of making an electrochemical cell comprising a silicon-containing anode includes forming a first electrochemical cell comprising the silicon-containing anode and a first electrolyte system, pre-lithiating the silicon-containing anode to produce a pre-lithiated anode in the first electrochemical cell, and forming a second electrochemical cell including the pre-lithiated anode and a second electrolyte system. The first electrolyte system includes a fluorinated solvent in an amount greater than 5 wt % and a first salt; and the second electrolyte system includes a hydrocarbon and a second salt. Forming the second electrochemical cell may include removing the first electrolyte system from the first electrochemical cell and introducing the second electrolyte to the emptied first electrochemical cell; or removing the pre-lithiated anode from the first electrochemical cell and constructing the second electrochemical cell with the pre-lithiated anode and the second electrolyte system.

Abstract: An anode for a rechargeable battery cell includes an electrode substrate and a current collector fixed to the electrode substrate. The anode also includes an active layer arranged on the current collector and having discrete first material sections and at least one second material section arranged in an alternating pattern. Each discrete material section is aligned parallel to the current collector. The active layer is configured to intercalate transient ions during charging of the battery cell and de-intercalate the transient ions during discharging of the battery cell. A method of manufacturing such an anode for a rechargeable battery cell is also considered.

Abstract: Methods and systems to implement sensor fusion to determine collision potential for a vehicle include identifying a specific intersection that the vehicle is approaching, and identifying collision potential scenarios associated with one or more paths through the specific intersection. Each collision potential scenario defines a risk of a collision between the vehicle and an object in a specified area. A weight with which one or more information sources of the vehicle are considered is adjusted for each collision potential scenario such that a highest weight is given to one or more of the one or more information sources that provide most relevant and reliable information about the specified area. Sensor fusion is implemented based on the adjusting the weight of the one or more information sources and performing detection based on the sensor fusion, and an alert is provided or actions are implemented according to the detection.

Abstract: A system and method for determining the presence of a hidden hazard may include identification of an operational scene for a host vehicle, and identification of an operational situation for the host vehicle. Information from a plurality of proximity sensors is collected and classified. A plurality of hidden hazard presence probabilities corresponding to the information from each of the plurality of proximity sensors, the operational scene, the operational situation, and at least one of a comparative process and a dynamic neural network process are estimated. A fusion process may be performed upon the plurality of hidden hazard presence probabilities to determine the presence of a hidden hazard.
