Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Marc A. Rosen is a professor at Ontario Tech University (formally University of Ontario Institute of Technology) in Oshawa, Canada, where he served as founding Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. He is also the Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Energy and Environmental Engineering and the founding Editor-in-Chief of Sustainability. He has written numerous books and journal articles. Professor Rosen received the President's Award from the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering in 2012. He is an active teacher and researcher in sustainable energy, environmental impact of energy and industrial systems, and energy technology (including heat transfer and recovery, renewable energy and efficiency improvement). His work on exergy methods in applied thermodynamics has been pioneering and led to many informative and useful findings. He has carried out research on linkages between thermodynamics and environmental impact and ecology. Much of his research has been carried out for industry.

Dr. Aida Farsi is a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). At the time of preparing the first edition of Battery Technology: From Fundamentals to Thermal Behavior and Management, Dr. Farsi held a postdoctoral position at Ontario Tech University. Her research expertise spans electrochemical energy systems, battery fundamentals, thermal behavior and management, electrochemical energy conversion, and system-level performance analysis. Dr. Farsi has authored numerous peer-reviewed journal articles and conference papers in the field of electrochemical energy technologies. Her background combines experimental, modeling, and system-integration approaches, making her contributions particularly relevant to both fundamental and applied aspects of battery technology.

Battery Technology: From Fundamentals to Thermal Behavior and Management provides comprehensive coverage of rechargeable battery technology fundamentals, as well as relevant aging mechanisms and thermal management systems. With a strong focus on the analysis and modeling of battery technologies, the book includes coverage of overpotentials in battery cells, and thermal-electrochemical coupled modeling of batteries.Beginning with an introduction to battery technology, the book then takes a deep dive into thermodynamics of batteries and electrochemical modeling of batteries. Subsequent chapters examine battery thermal behavior and thermal systems, before discussing integrated battery-based systems. Accompanied by chapter objectives, applications, case studies and study questions to test knowledge, Battery Technology: From Fundamentals to Thermal Behavior and Management is an essential resource for students and researchers wanting to understand the underlying basics of batteries, as well as the latest advances in battery technology.
