However, existing methods generally rely on numerous feature parameters while underutilizing the potential of historical sample data. Additionally, in the early stages of RUL, the weak correlation between capacity and historical samples often compromises prediction accuracy. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel prediction framework, DDSF-QD (Dynamic Double Similarity Fusion model incorporating ΔQ Power Law and Dynamic Time Warping). First, the original data are denoised using the CFK method (CEEMDAN-Fuzzy Entropy-K-means) to improve data quality. Then, the proposed ΔQ(V) power law is constructed to evaluate lifetime similarity, and combined with the DTW (Dynamic Time Warping) algorithm to calculate the initial spatial similarity. High-quality historical samples are used to train the network, and then their corresponding weights are dynamically fused within the DDSF (Dynamic Double Similarity Fusion model) framework to update sample weights. This enables the prediction network to estimate future capacity degradation trends and predict RUL based on a predefined failure threshold. Experimental results on classical lithium-ion battery aging datasets demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method, achieving a coefficient of determination (R²) of 99.85 %. To the best of our knowledge, both the ΔQ(V) power law and the DDSF framework are proposed for the first time, highlighting their potential in battery health management.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Electrochemical Science","volume":"20 10","pages":"Article 101102"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144549955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its favourable surface properties have resulted in the requirements for its usage growing significantly, including in applications with small structures and complex geometries such as cardiovascular stents. Compared to sandblasting, grinding, and other surface treatment methods for such complex applications, electrochemical polishing offers the advantages of non-contact processing and uniform treatment; consequently, it has become a key surface treatment technique for cardiovascular stents. To further clarify the overall influence of electrochemical polishing on the service performance of cardiovascular stents, this study investigates the effects of electrochemical polishing parameters, such as the current density, electrode spacing, polishing temperature, and polishing time, on the surface performance of Ni–Ti alloy cardiovascular stents. This was achieved through orthogonal and one-factor experiments conducted on a custom-built cardiovascular stent polishing platform, with the goal of identifying the optimal process parameters. The results reveal that electrochemical polishing effectively reduces the surface roughness of the stent, eliminates defects such as thermal damage remaining after laser cutting, and improves the surface quality. Additionally, the oxide film formed on the surface after polishing enhances the corrosion resistance and prevents Ni ion precipitation. Overall, these findings provide a valuable reference for improving the serviceability and biocompatibility of Ni–Ti alloy cardiovascular stents.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13872,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Electrochemical Science","volume":"20 9","pages":"Article 101101"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144307541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
