Figure 4

Simulated principal stress on backsheet for C-AST MiMos at (a) − 20 °C without mechanical load, (b) − 20 °C with mechanical load, (c) 90 °C without mechanical load and (d) 90 °C with mechanical load showing stress concentrations over cell tabbing lengths but minimal change due to mechanical loading. Displacements scaled by 10 ×. Graphics rendered using Sierra/SolidMechanics 4.56, https://www.sandia.gov/ASC/integrated_codes.html.
