Understanding the mechanism of mechanical deformation/stress-induced electrical failure of
lithium–ion batteries (LIBs) is important in crash-safety design of power LIBs. The state of …

Constraint-induced stresses develop during Li-ion battery cycling, because anode and
cathode materials expand and contract as they intercalate or de-intercalate Li. We show in …

The fracture of battery materials is one of the main causes of battery degradation. This issue
is further amplified in emerging solid-state batteries, where the more robust interface …
