Thesis worker - Circularity Assessment of Battery Packs
Introduction
Thesis work is an excellent way to get closer to Scania and Traton and build relationships for the future. Many of today's employees began their Traton career with their degree project.
Background
Circularity assessment of design alternatives can help to make better circularity decisions and choose an alternative that gives the best value with the least environmental impact.
Objectives
The thesis will require the assessment of early-stage battery pack concepts using existing circularity evaluation methodology. The design decisions taken will be documented and evaluated based on the priorities of the project, and this will be analyzed in relation to how market or project requirements can affect circularity decisions. Are there any overlaps, and are there any synergies that can be harnessed? After assessment, gaps in data needed for circularity decisions will be documented. Finally, suggestions will be made on improving battery pack design and updates to methodology.
Qualifications
