Battery Thermal Management by Design: How Advanced Materials Are Enabling the Next Generation of EV Batteries


Sponsored by H.B. FullerAs electric vehicles evolve, battery design is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Automakers are under pressure to deliver greater driving range, faster charging, lower costs, improved safety, and more sustainable manufacturing practices, all within the same battery system. Achieving those objectives requires more than advances in cell chemistry alone. Increasingly, innovation is coming… Read more » Read more…

Planning for EV charging site success: cable pulling considerations and CIC alternatives


Sponsored by Southwire. By Kevin Wahl, Lead Consulting Engineer, CableTechSupport™ Services, Southwire Company. In a previous article, we explored how Cable in Conduit (CIC) can help simplify installations by combining cable and conduit into a single factory-assembled system. However, traditional cable pulling still remains the most common installation method used across the industry today. Understanding… Read more » Read more…

Using PXI-based fault insertion and sensor simulation in electronic test


Sponsored by Pickering Interfaces. Electronic Control Units (ECUs) now sit at the heart of nearly every vehicle system, from anti-lock braking to battery management. In EVs, these units govern functions where a single fault can compromise safety. That reality places a heavy burden on you as a test engineer: proving that an ECU behaves predictably… Read more » Read more…
