The proposed framework enables to determine the space of C-Rates and electrode particle radii that suppresses or enhances debonding. Results are graphically summarized into maps where four debonding descriptions are identified: (a) the\u00a0<em>spontaneous debonding<\/em>description, which occurs when the electrode particle spontaneously detaches from the matrix; (b) the\u00a0<em>continuous debonding<\/em>\u00a0description, which occurs when the electrode particle gradually loses contact with the surrounding matrix; (c) the\u00a0<em>electrochemical cycling fatigue<\/em>\u00a0description, which causes gradual growth of the flaw due to electrochemical cycling; and (d) the\u00a0<em>microstructural debonding<\/em>\u00a0description, which is a result of the microstructural stochastics of the electrode and is embodied in terms of the debonding probability of particles. The particle-dependent critical C-Rates for debonding power-law relation enables the experimental identification of individual failure mechanisms, thereby providing a context to formulate design strategies to minimize debonding and provide robust, physics-based, phenomenological, and statistics-based estimates for electrochemically driven failure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"post-excerpt\" class=\"post-excerpt\">A Surya Mitra, A Anapolsky, R Edwin Garc\u00eda &#8220;Analytical design of electrode&hellip;<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/engineering.purdue.edu\/ComputationalMaterials\/index.php\/2026\/08\/01\/a-surya-mitra-a-anapolsky-r-edwin-garcia-analytical-design-of-electrode-particle-debonding-for-battery-applications-modelling-and-simulation-in-materials-science-and-engineering-32-6-065031\/\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;A Surya Mitra, A Anapolsky, R Edwin Garc\u00eda &#8220;Analytical design of electrode particle debonding for battery applications.&#8221;
