All students, regardless of major, also take a second-yearsystems engineering course taught using a combination of small, active-learning classroomsessions and partner-based laboratories (course B). A small number of students perform researchwith faculty members (Research), which is often conducted in groups. These details aresummarized for each course in Table 1.3.2 RecruitmentThe interview subjects were recruited from course A and Capstone. Subjects were recruited

parameters. When designing a BMS,design considerations must be made for cell balancing. Cell balancing is the process ofequalizing charge across all cells within a battery bank, either through dissipation as heat orthrough the transfer of energy from high power cells to low power cells. To better understand themechanics of cell balancing, the design team reviewed the research of B. Yildirim et al. found inreference [3]. This article covers three methods of cell equalization in battery energy storagesystems (BESS). Cell balancing is an integral component to maintaining SOH. While cells of thesame voltage may be used in a system, “manufacturing and thermal variations, differences ininternal impedances, and self-discharging rates” will cause variation
