BATTwin project consortium meeting and workshop held at Cambridge

The CINEA-funded BATTwin project held its seventh consortium meeting in Homerton College, Cambridge, where HUN-REN SZTAKI was also represented. With the completion of model development, the project partners have now turned their attention to addressing integration tasks.

The challenges affect every level of the BATTwin platform such as the data platform, the models, the integration processes, and interface development alike, so this joint meeting was important. Researchers from HUN-REN discussed—among others—with colleagues from Comau, CESI, and ENSAM how to use the results of discrete-event simulations to schedule maintenance operations and how to feed these optimization results back into the simulation.

Following the consortium meeting, on 16th-17th April, BATTwin and BatCAT projects jointly organized the Advanced Battery Manufacturing Workshop. The workshop brought together representatives from both industry and research institutions, who presented their latest findings.

The latest research findings from HUN-REN SZTAKI’s Research Laboratory on Engineering & Management Intelligence were presented by Gergely Horváth, which are based on the combination of digital twin modeling, complex optimization, and artificial intelligence tools. The results presented demonstrated to workshop participants the universality and wide-ranging applicability of the lab’s expertise through examples drawn from several different industries.
