Trade Secrets

Due to confidentiality of trade secrets, limited information is able to be provided on the current 12 holded traded secrets from GM. These registered trade secrets encompass the following areas:​

  • Test methods for improved model development of product abuse conditions

  • Advanced modeling techniques for prediction of a lithium-ion battery overheating and initiating into thermal runaway

  • Manufacturing techniques for electric vehicle products

  • Advanced product design algorithms for electric vehicles not detectable in traditional teardowns.
