Risk assessment in battery design is the process of identifying, evaluating, and mitigating potential hazards associated with battery systems.
Expanded Explanation
Risk assessment considers electrical, thermal, mechanical, and environmental factors that could impact battery safety or performance. It often involves analyzing failure modes, defining mitigation strategies, and validating protective measures through testing. Risk assessment is especially important for medical and industrial applications where failure consequences are significant.
Why it matters
Structured risk assessment reduces safety incidents and supports regulatory approval.
