thevenin: An Equivalent Circuit Modeling Package [SWR-24-132]

This package is a wrapper for the well-known Thevenin equivalent circuit model for simulating battery behavior with a focus on ease of use. The model is comprised of a single series resistor followed by any number of parallel RC pairs. The package includes an intuitive "experiment" interface, which simplifies the programming of constant or dynamic current, voltage, and/or power-driven loads, making it ideal for a wide range of applications, from basic tests to complex simulations. It also supports state-of-charge (SOC) and temperature-dependent properties, allowing the model to be more easily calibrated against real cells.

scikit-SUNDAE ((SUN)DIALS Differential Algebraic Equations) [SWR-24-137]

Scikit-SUNDAE provides Python bindings to SUNDIALS integrators. The implicit differential algebraic (IDA) solver and C-based variable-coefficient ordinary differential equations (CVODE) solver are both included. The name SUNDAE combines (SUN)DIALS and DAE, which stands for differential algebraic equations. Solvers specific to DAE problems are not frequently available in Python. An ordinary differential equation (ODE) solver is also included for completeness. ODEs can be categorized as a subset of DAEs (i.e., DAEs with no algebraic constraints). https://pypi.org/project/scikit-sundae
