Having revealed the relationship between 16 mechanistic SOH metrics and cycling conditions using an aging matrix, we now demonstrate the explanatory nature of our framework by answering one important, exemplar question: "how does degradation at specific electrodes contribute to resistance growth in a battery?" Resistance growth during aging can limit the discharge capacity and energy of a battery. However, it is challenging to understand where inside a battery resistance growth originates using only full cell measurements because of the convolution of multiple effects from both electrodes. The resistances of individual electrodes are highly dependent on their respective electrode's lithiation state and degradation.
