Moreover, electric vehicles (EVs) gained more attention due to their low charging costs, low energy consumption, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. However, a single failure or malfunction in an EV's intrinsic components due to poor charging infrastructure can bring about a high tendency of fault occurrence that needs to be diagnosed earlier for efficient safety management. In addition, ensuring the safety and reliability of these EV batteries remains a critical challenge that underscores the importance of an efficient battery fault detection system, pivotal in enhancing battery safety and lifespan. Hence, the research centers on developing a well-structured battery fault detection model leveraging a Search- Survive optimization (SSO) based deep incorporated model. This incorporated model combines Deep Convolutional Neural Network (Deep CNN), Deep Bidirectional Long-Short Term Memory (Deep BiLSTM), and Deep Belief Network (DBN) that assists in extracting the hierarchical representations and the spatial–temporal features associated with the various EV faults. The deep incorporated model is optimized with SSO that aids the model to perform enhanced battery fault detection of EVs. Performance assessment relies on key parameters like accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity, based on the NASA battery dataset. Impressively, the SSO-based Deep Incorporated model attains an accuracy of 96.00%, sensitivity of 96.29%, and specificity of 95.72 for 80% of training.

The present work focuses on latent heat TES system optimization for solar thermal power plant applications. This study aims to assess the impact of different thermal processing factors on the efficiency of TES systems. Parametric analysis determines a TES system's charging and discharging durations that use latent heat storage material. Thermal processing conditions were selected as input parameters, such as the heat transfer fluid inlet temperature, flow rate, and number of phase change material (PCM) capsules. Experiments were planned to use the L<sub>9</sub> orthogonal array of the Taguchi method, and response measures, such as charging time (CT) and discharging time (DT), were monitored. A signal-to-noise ratio analysis was used to evaluate the significance of the thermal processing parameters on the response measures. Response surface methodology (RSM) postulates the mathematical relationships between process conditions and responses. Finally, the multi-objective Jaya optimization algorithm (MOJOA) was used to optimize the parametric combination to minimize CT and maximize DT simultaneously. A heat transfer fluid inlet temperature of 65°C, flow rate of 2 L/min, and 40 PCM capsules were determined as the optimal parametric conditions by MOJOA for predicting the combined CT and DT. The verification test results substantiate the enhanced responses of the latent heat TES system, specifically in the CT and DT.
