Dean's Speaker Seminar: Dr. Deniz Karakoyunlu November 25, 2024

Abstract: As we move toward a future with battery powered electric vehicles, the manufacturers are trying to reduce the size, weight and cost impacts of batteries over a vehicle's complete life cycle and extend the driving range the battery supports.
