Advancing transportation electrification requires a deeper understanding of how battery systems behave under demanding operating conditions and how safety can be engineered into designs from the outset.
We are excited that UL Research Institutes’ Electrochemical Safety Research Institute will share research that supports the development of safer, more reliable energy storage technologies for mobility applications at ASME DRIVN 2026, taking place Sept. 14-16 in Detroit, Michigan.
On Tuesday, Sept. 15, during conference sessions beginning at 9:20 a.m. EDT, Avijit Karmakar, Ph.D., research scientist, will present “Evaluation of Thermal Management Strategies for Lithium-Ion Battery Modules Under Safety-Relevant Operating Conditions.” The presentation explores a physics-based thermal modeling framework developed to assess battery module cooling strategies under safety-relevant operating conditions.
Attend the session to learn how experimental data, physics-based modeling, and optimization techniques can inform safer battery module designs.
ASME DRIVN brings together engineers, researchers, and industry leaders to explore emerging technologies shaping the future of mobility, including electrification, autonomy, safety, and sustainable transportation systems.
