The DEM workflow used to simulate the manufacturing process is based on the standard wet-processing protocol used in a manufacturing pilot-line. A slurry is created, dried to form an electrode and then calendered. In Figure , snapshots of the simulations of the wet-processing are shown to illustrate the procedure. In our simulation framework, the slurry generation implies generating particles at random positions inside a large simulation box with periodic boundary conditions in all directions as an initial configuration. SE and the CBsolvent domain are modeled as spheres, whilst the AM shape is resolved according to the methodology described in Figure and based on , shown in Figure . One assumption of the model is that the carbon and binder are both thoroughly mixed and thereby homogeneously distributed within the Carbon Binder Domain (CBD). Such an assumption is typically made while analyzing CBD morphology. All simulations are performed using the open source molecular dynamics code LAMMPS.
