While Physics-Informed Neural Networks offer a promising framework for solving partial differential equations, the standard $L^2$ loss formulation is fundamentally insufficient when applied to the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) model. Specifically, simply minimizing the standard loss does not guarantee accurate predictions of the macroscopic moments, causing the approximate solutions to fail in capturing the true physical solution. To overcome this limitation, we introduce a velocity-weighted $L^2$ loss function designed to effectively penalize errors in the high-velocity regions. By establishing a stability estimate for the proposed approach, we shows that minimizing the proposed weighted loss guarantees the convergence of the approximate solution. Also, numerical experiments demonstrate that employing this weighted PINN loss leads to superior accuracy and robustness across various benchmarks compared to the standard approach.

In this work, we address the challenges posed by the high nonlinearity of the Butler-Volmer (BV) equation in forward and inverse simulations of the pseudo-two-dimensional (P2D) model using the physics-informed neural network (PINN) framework. The BV equation presents significant challenges for PINNs, primarily due to the hyperbolic sine term, which renders the Hessian of the PINN loss function highly ill-conditioned. To address this issue, we introduce a bypassing term that improves numerical stability by substantially reducing the condition number of the Hessian matrix. Furthermore, the small magnitude of the ionic flux \( j \) often leads to a common failure mode where PINNs converge to incorrect solutions. We demonstrate that incorporating a secondary conservation law for the solid-phase potential \( ψ\) effectively prevents such convergence issues and ensures solution accuracy. The proposed methods prove effective for solving both forward and inverse problems involving the BV equation. Specifically, we achieve precise parameter estimation in inverse scenarios and reliable solution predictions for forward simulations.
