Systems and methods for optimizing battery designs

Abstract:

Systems, computer readable media, and method concern determining operational parameters of an inventory of components to be included in a battery. The method further includes determining an initial working solution for a battery design layout for the battery. The method also includes determining, based on the initial working solution, one or more possible solutions for the battery design layout utilizing a local search algorithm. The local search algorithm iteratively generates the one or more possible solutions from the initial working solution by swapping components from one or more components assigned to locations in the battery design layout with at least one of other components assigned to locations in the battery design layout and other components remaining in the inventory. The swapping of components is limited by a tabu list.
