A statistical analysis of the effect of design factors of the cylindrical battery module on the thermal behavior by C-rate.

In real-world driving scenarios of electric vehicles, the C-rate fluctuates with changes in speed, and a Battery Thermal Management System (BTMS) design that does not account for a range of C-rates may fail to ensure thermal safety of the battery. In this study, we statistically analyzed the effects of cooling plate geometry and coolant velocity on battery thermal behavior using Design of Experiments (DoE) and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) across various C-rates. The ANOVA results by C-rate demonstrate that the influence of design factors on BTMS thermal behavior varies with the C-rate.

The Berry Extract and Soluble Whey Protein Hydrolysate Mixture Ameliorates Sarcopenia-Related Muscular Deterioration in Aged Mice.

Sarcopenia is prevalent as the aging population grows. Therefore, the need for supplements for the elderly is increasing. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and mechanism of a berry extract (GBE) and soluble whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) mixture on a sarcopenia-related muscular deterioration in aged mice.
