BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle)

Vehicle with 100% electric motor.

BMS, BTMS (Battery Management System, Battery Thermal Management System)

Electronic electrical and thermal control system integrated in a battery.

CEI (Cathode Electrolyte Interphase)

Layer formed at the interface between the positive electrode and the electrolyte.

DOD (Depth of Discharge)

Depth of discharge of a battery expressed as a % of the total capacity available for discharge.

DRX (X-ray Diffraction); XRD

Analytical technique used to study the different crystalline phases of a material. It is based on the diffraction of X-rays by a sample according to the orientation of the crystalline lattices in space.

DVA (Differential Voltage Analysis)

Electrochemical technique that consists of plotting the derivative $\text{d}V\text{/d}Q\text{=}f\left(Q\right)$...
