Why did we start Ionworks?
๐ชซBatteries are a bottleneck to tackling climate change.
๐ปSimulations speed up battery R&D.
โCompanies lack time & expertise to develop simulation software.
๐Ionworks creates cutting-edge battery simulation software built on @pybamm_.
Hello world!
We are Ionworks, the modern software stack for batteries powered by @pybamm_ ! ๐๐ป
Find out more about why we started Ionworks:

Check out this interview with co-Founder and CTO Tom Tranter on our @FaradayInst Entrepreneurial Fellowship.
Our mission is to accelerate battery R&D using virtual prototyping. We leverage advanced physics-based models, centered around our core open-source technology: @pybamm_.
๐ฃNew case study: during a @FaradayInst Entrepreneurial Fellowship @ionworks_ created professional, user-friendly software-as-a-service user interfaces for @pybamm_ making it accessible for industry organisations ๐

Why is parameterisation the main bottle neck in battery modelling?
The main issue is system identifiability, but using the right tools can significantly speed up the process.
Get in touch to discover how we can help you with parameterisation!

We are delighted to welcome Eric Kratz to the Ionworks team!
Eric is a theoretical chemist and software engineer who loves building technologies with a positive impact on the world. He is excited to bring his expertise on software development to battery applications.
Tired of developing battery models directly in Simulink? Need to bridge the gap between your cell design and BMS teams?
Check our conversion tool: send us your @pybamm_ model and weโll send back the MATLAB, Simulink or Simscape model.

What are the current main challenges in battery modelling?
We believe they are:
๐ฌ Parameterisation
๐ฅ Degradation
๐ค Knowledge transfer

What are the similarities and differences between the Doyle-Fuller-Newman model and Single Particle Models?
In this post we compare the most common physics-based models, and illustrate it with some interactive examples (powered by @pybamm_, of course).

We are very happy to announce that we have been awarded the @FaradayInst Entrepreneurial Fellowship.
This fellowship will allow us to establish our first generation of battery modelling products.
Replying to @FaradayInst
๐@ionworks_ is a startup built around physics-based #modelling software @pybamm_ , a core part of @batterymodel. The Fellowship will enable Ionworks to ramp up development of professional interfaces to transform their prototypes into attractive, widely usable products ๐งตโฌ๏ธ
How are physics-based models for batteries built? ๐
To build a model we need to combine various pieces to obtain a model:
๐งฉ Geometry.
๐งฉ Conservation laws.
๐งฉ Constitutive relations.
