“…In particular, the characterization of the mechanical and thermal stability in operando conditions is a significant subject, and some interesting papers address this problem: capacity loss is related to possible electrode side reactions inducing mechanical degradation of the solid-electrolyte-interface, 10 direct mechanical abuse of lithium batteries via multi-parameter controlled pinch test, 11,12 mechanical compression indentation by using hemispherical and conical punches, 13 induced thermal abuse, 14 changes in battery dimension durung charge/discharge, 15 non-uniform material distribution in the electrode particles inducing mechanical stress (through localized volume changes). 16,17 Moreover, lithium-ion batteries were supposed to be practically free of any memory-effect. i.e.…”
