Mesh-Free Solution of 2D Poisson Equation with High Frequency Charge Patterns Using Data-Free Physics Informed Neural Network

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we present a data-free physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) approach for solving two-dimensional (2D) Poisson equation, which is pivotal in fields such as electromagnetics, mechanical engginering, and thermodynamics. Traditional numerical method for solving this equation often require structured mesh generation such as Finite Element Method (FEM), which can be computationally expensive when dealing with high resolution Poisson Equation Solution. To address this challenge, we leverage the capabilities of PINNs capturing pattern of complex system by incorporating physical law and boundary condition as part of loss function on training model. While PINNs provide a robust framework for solving differential equations within boundary condition, they have struggle with capturing high-frequency pattern due to smooth nature of typical activation function used in neural networks. To evercome this issue, we enhance our model by incorporating Fourier Features Networks, which map inputs through a series of sinusoidal functions before feeding the input into the neural network. The result show that Fourier feature network can enhance convergence of training of PINNs model faster and obtained better result than PINNs without Fourier feature networks.
