Localized impact-resistant battery enclosures for electric vehicles: crashworthy lightweight design, mechanical–thermal safety, and validation pathways
Electric-vehicle battery enclosures must reduce structural mass while preserving deformation clearance, sealing integrity, electrical isolation, and post-impact safety. These requirements are difficult under bottom strike and side-pole collision because both load cases create localized intrusion near cells and modules,...
