Abstract

The 2035 European Union ban on internal combustion engines pushes the transport industry toward alternative propulsion technologies. One of the most potent alternatives to the 250 million passenger automobiles in Europe is the use of electric vehicles with lithium-ion batteries as a special energy storage system. To develop a sus-tainable, money-saving, and mature technology like today's internal combustion engines, however, issues including battery deterioration, charging times, and safety must be addressed. In this study, Lithium Ferrum Phosphate and Nickel Manganese Cobalt, two distinct cathode chemistries indicative of transport solutions, are compared for cell performance and ageing. It is possible to improve battery design to increase capacity and lower the risk of thermal runaway by using experimental and numerical methods to evaluate and predict the battery ageing effect. The calibrated ageing model may also forecast battery life and its effect on the vehicle's driving range. The findings indicate that the Lithium Ferrum Phosphate cathode chemistry has a lower energy density and ages more quickly than the Nickel Manganese Cobalt, resulting in a shorter driving range. In specifically, a brand-new Nickel Manganese Cobalt battery provides 84 km of additional city driving range and 50 km of highway driving range over a Lithium Ferrum Phosphate battery. The Nickel Manganese Cobalt battery offers 53 km more driving range on the interstate and 91 km more in urban driving at the end of its useful life (20 % capacity loss).

Quality index

Bibliometric impact. Analysis of the contribution and dissemination channel

The work has been published in the journal Energy Conversion And Management due to its progression and the good impact it has achieved in recent years, according to the agency WoS (JCR), it has become a reference in its field. In the year of publication of the work, 2023, it was in position 3/170, thus managing to position itself as a Q1 (Primer Cuartil), in the category Mechanics. Notably, the journal is positioned above the 90th percentile.

From a relative perspective, and based on the normalized impact indicator calculated from World Citations provided by WoS (ESI, Clarivate), it yields a value for the citation normalization relative to the expected citation rate of: 2.36. This indicates that, compared to works in the same discipline and in the same year of publication, it ranks as a work cited above average. (source consulted: ESI Nov 14, 2024)

This information is reinforced by other indicators of the same type, which, although dynamic over time and dependent on the set of average global citations at the time of their calculation, consistently position the work at some point among the top 50% most cited in its field:

  • Weighted Average of Normalized Impact by the Scopus agency: 2.75 (source consulted: FECYT Feb 2024)
  • Field Citation Ratio (FCR) from Dimensions: 5.49 (source consulted: Dimensions Jun 2025)

Specifically, and according to different indexing agencies, this work has accumulated citations as of 2025-06-19, the following number of citations:

  • WoS: 22
  • Scopus: 25
  • OpenCitations: 20

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-06-19:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 35.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 35 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 4.9.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 6 (Altmetric).
