Development of electromagnetic shielding for electric vehicle composite battery enclosure

SMC battery enclosure with electromagnetic (EM) shielding properties for electrical vehicles. The main objectives of this project are to identify a low-cost EM shielding material to integrate in the enclosure and to develop a manufacturing process which can ultimately reach a production rate of less than 10 minutes per part.
Through the additional support of a Mitacs grant, a postdoctoral student will work on the development, characterization and simulation of the EM shielding material while four collegial interns will support through process development, performance analysis and destructive inspection of the moulded parts.
