Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to the advantages of a long cycle life, high charge and discharge efficiency, and high energy density, lithium-ion batteries have been widely used as a power source in electrical vehicles. However, the lifetime of lithium-ion batteries struggles to completely cover the lifetime of electrical vehicles, which is attributed to the faster ageing rate of batteries. Therefore, it is crucial to study issues related to the degradation of the batteries to ensure safe and reliable operation.
This SpeciaI lssue encourages and welcomes original research articles on ageing mechanisms, state of health (SOH) estimations, and lifetime prognosis. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Ageing mechanism;
- Kinetic characteristics of the side reactions;
- The electrochemical model coupled the ageing mechanism;
- SOH estimations;
- Prediction of remaining useful life;
- Ageing fault diagnostics;
- Accelerated aging methods.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
