Technology

Electrochemical battery models provide deep insight into the internal behaviour of lithium-ion cells. They describe ion transport, reaction kinetics and electrode dynamics using systems of coupled differential equations. These models are powerful but computationally demanding, which limits their use in real-time applications. Artiphy addresses this limitation by constructing neural surrogates of electrochemical battery models. These surrogates replicate the behaviour of the underlying physics model while running dramatically faster, making high-fidelity modelling accessible in applications where traditional solvers are impractical.

How It Works

Artiphy models are neural surrogates designed to reproduce the behaviour of electrochemical battery models with extremely high computational efficiency. Once constructed, these surrogate models can evaluate battery behaviour rapidly without solving the underlying system of equations. This enables physics-based prediction and analysis to be performed orders of magnitude faster than with classical modelling approaches. The resulting models combine the interpretability of physics-based modelling with the speed and efficiency required for real-time applications.

Advantages

Physics interpretability

Artiphy models retain access to physically meaningful internal variables such as lithium concentration and reaction rates.

Hardware efficiency

Model sizes are typically under 100 KB, enabling deployment on embedded processors and battery management hardware.

Flexible inputs

Models accept arbitrary current profiles and operating conditions.

Scalable inference

Fast evaluation enables advanced statistical techniques such as Bayesian parameter inference and uncertainty quantification.
