This work prepares silicon-based composite nanomaterials with a “silicon core–carbon buffer layer–titanium dioxide coating layer” structure through an in-situ composite process and pairs them with a water-based binder to optimize the performance of silicon-based anodes. Microscopic characterization shows that the process successfully constructs the target core–shell structure.

Traditional batteries and supercapacitors have limitations in balancing superior energy density, fast power delivery, durability, and long-term stability. Two strategies are mentioned in this review: Hollow Nanostructures (HSNs) and Triple Oxide Composites (TOCs). HSNs have internal cavities and shells which effectively decelerate the large-scale volume expansion (e.g. &gt;200%), repress the ion diffusion routes (&lt; 10<sup>− 13</sup> cm<sup>2</sup>/s) and enable high cyclability (&gt; 90% capacity retention following 500 cycles). TOCs, such as Ni–Co– MnO₄ and Mn–Co–Fe₃O₄ on the contrary, add a series of redox couples (Co²⁺/Co³⁺, Mn³⁺/Mn⁴⁺, Ni²⁺/Ni³⁺), which increase the intrinsic electronic conductivity and the integrity of the lattice. A hybrid architecture (HSN-TOC) that integrates the structural flexibility of HSNs with the redox diversity of TOCs has already shown exceptional electrochemical performance with capacities of over 1000 mAh g⁻¹ in Li-ion and over 600 F g⁻¹ in supercapacitors. This integration helps balance high energy density and power density, whereas it improves safety, lifespan, and environmental sustainability.

First, the system fails to adapt to complicated and variable vehicle driving conditions. Second, the system cannot achieve optimal power distribution rapidly. Third, the system still cannot balance the reduction of hydrogen consumption, the suppression of power fluctuations and the stabilization of the state of charge (SOC) of lithium-ion batteries. To address the above problems, a multi-objective fuzzy energy management strategy based on an Improved Newton-Raphson Based Optimization (INRBO) algorithm is proposed in this paper. The INRBO algorithm is an improved version of the NRBO algorithm presented in this study. Three improvements are implemented in this algorithm. Chaotic mapping is used in initialization to expand the solution space coverage. An adaptive exploration-exploitation balance strategy is designed for dynamic search intensity adjustment. A stagnation detection and perturbation mechanism is introduced to escape local optima. The membership functions of the fuzzy logic controller are optimized offline with the INRBO algorithm in this paper. The comprehensive objectives of minimizing equivalent hydrogen consumption, suppressing PEMFC power fluctuations and stabilizing the SOC of lithium-ion batteries are realized by applying the INRBO fuzzy energy management strategy. The INRBO algorithm is compared with five high-performance intelligent algorithms under static and dynamic conditions with different training durations. The INRBO-fuzzy energy management strategy is compared with two classical energy management strategies under the China Light-Duty Vehicle Test Cycle-Passenger (CLTC-P). Simulation results show that INRBO is characterized by fast convergence speed and high optimization accuracy. Under the CLTC-P driving cycle, the proposed INRBO-fuzzy control strategy achieves rapid optimal power distribution, consequently reducing hydrogen consumption, smoothing power fluctuations of the PEMFC, and stabilizing the state of charge of the lithium-ion battery. Specifically, compared with the power-following strategy, the proposed strategy reduces total equivalent hydrogen consumption by 31.44% and decreases the standard deviation of PEMFC output power by 19.96%. Compared with the expert-experience-based fuzzy control strategy, it achieves additional reductions of 13.35% in hydrogen consumption and 20.62% in power standard deviation. The lithium-ion battery SOC is maintained within the range of 0.67 to 0.85, ensuring safe and stable operation without overcharging or over-discharging.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":599,"journal":{"name":"Ionics","volume":"32 10","pages":"10919 - 10937"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148962111","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}

However, achieving accurate RUL prediction remains highly challenging due to the complexities of degradation mechanisms and the impact of operational noise, particularly the capacity regeneration phenomenon. Consequently, we propose a model based on sequence decomposition and improved iTransformer for predicting the RUL of lithium-ion batteries. Initially, battery capacity is selected as the health indicator, and Improved Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (ICEEMDAN) is applied to decompose the degradation data into multi-scale components. Subsequently, the multi order Kolmogorov-Arnold network (MKAN) module is integrated to capture the nonlinear patterns of capacity regeneration. This is followed by the multi-head differential attention iTransformer, which amplifies attention to the relevant context while canceling noise. Specifically, the differential attention mechanism calculates the attention scores as the difference between two separate softmax attention maps, promoting a more focused feature representation. The method’s effectiveness is confirmed through experiments conducted on the public datasets from NASA, CALCE and Wenzhou. The results indicate that the proposed method achieves a maximum MAE of no more than 1.5% and a maximum RMSE of no more than 2% across three publicly available datasets, demonstrating improved accuracy and stability in RUL estimation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":599,"journal":{"name":"Ionics","volume":"32 10","pages":"10871 - 10887"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148962437","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}
