Hello, I’m Yizhou Zhang, a battery specialist and industrial Ph.D. student who works with Zeekr Technology Europe AB and is also affiliated with the Automatic Control research group at Chalmers University of Technology. My research is centered around the exciting field of data science and its application in battery aging diagnostics and prognostics. I’m deeply engaged in projects that revolve around data-driven approaches to assess battery health and predict its lifetime. The ultimate goal of my work is to contribute to the expansion of the lifespan and optimization of the performance of traction batteries used in electrified vehicles.
