Detección Adaptativa de Fallos Basada en Redes Neuronales para el Proceso Térmico de Celdas de Batería

This article presents an adaptive neural network (AdNN)-based fault detection framework for the thermal processes of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries governed by 2-D semilinear partial differential equations (PDEs) with partially known dynamics. To address the challenges of unknown nonlinear heat generation and limited sensor measurements, a two-stage approach combining reduced-order modeling with adaptive neural observation is proposed. First, a computationally tractable reduced-order model is derived through spectral approximation techniques. An adaptive neural observer is then designed to simultaneously estimate battery states and unknown nonlinear dynamics using only available surface temperature measurements. For robust fault detection, a hybrid scheme is developed that integrates model-based residual generation with data-driven threshold generation. Experimental validation on a pouch-type battery demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method in reliably detecting thermal abnormalities.
