30 hp – Physics-Informed Machine Learning for Reduced-Order Battery Modelling in Embedded BMS
Introduction
Thesis work is an excellent way to get closer to Scania and build relationships for the future. Many of today's employees began their Scania career with their degree project.
TRATON R&D develops core technologies for the global brands Scania, MAN, and International. This master's thesis offers an opportunity to work with advanced machine learning, physics-based modelling, and embedded systems for heavy-duty electric vehicles.
Background
Advanced electrochemical battery models, such as the Doyle–Fuller–Newman (DFN) model, provide detailed information about internal battery behaviour. However, their computational complexity limits their direct application in production Battery Management Systems (BMS).
Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) offer a promising approach to developing computationally efficient models by combining physical equations with machine learning. Their accuracy, generalization, and suitability for embedded applications require further investigation.
Objective
Develop and evaluate physics-informed machine learning approaches for computationally efficient electrochemical battery modelling.
The thesis will investigate whether incorporating physical knowledge improves prediction accuracy, robustness, and generalization compared with conventional machine learning, while assessing the feasibility of embedded BMS implementation.
Education/program/focus
Master's student (civilingenjör) in computer science, machine learning, applied mathematics, engineering physics, or a related field.
Good knowledge of Python and machine learning is important. Experience with PyTorch or TensorFlow is an advantage. Knowledge of scientific machine learning, numerical optimization, PINNs, or embedded systems is beneficial.
