Lagrangian Data-Driven Reduced Order Modeling of Finite Time Lyapunov Exponents
There are two main strategies for improving the projection-based reduced
order model (ROM) accuracy: (i) improving the ROM, i.e., adding new terms to
the standard ROM; and (ii) improving the ROM basis, i.e., constructing ROM
bases that yield more accurate ROMs. In this paper, we use the latter. We
propose new Lagrangian inner products that we use together with Eulerian and
Lagrangian data to construct new Lagrangian ROMs. We show that the new
Lagrangian ROMs are orders of magnitude more accurate than the standard
Eulerian ROMs, i.e., ROMs that use standard Eulerian inner product and data to
construct the ROM basis. Specifically, for the quasi-geostrophic equations, we
show that the new Lagrangian ROMs are more accurate than the standard Eulerian
ROMs in approximating not only Lagrangian fields (e.g., the finite time
Lyapunov exponent (FTLE)), but also Eulerian fields (e.g., the streamfunction).
We emphasize that the new Lagrangian ROMs do not employ any closure modeling to
model the effect of discarded modes (which is standard procedure for
low-dimensional ROMs of complex nonlinear systems). Thus, the dramatic increase
in the new Lagrangian ROMs' accuracy is entirely due to the novel Lagrangian
inner products used to build the Lagrangian ROM basis
Reduced order modeling of fluid flows: Machine learning, Kolmogorov barrier, closure modeling, and partitioning
In this paper, we put forth a long short-term memory (LSTM) nudging framework
for the enhancement of reduced order models (ROMs) of fluid flows utilizing
noisy measurements. We build on the fact that in a realistic application, there
are uncertainties in initial conditions, boundary conditions, model parameters,
and/or field measurements. Moreover, conventional nonlinear ROMs based on
Galerkin projection (GROMs) suffer from imperfection and solution instabilities
due to the modal truncation, especially for advection-dominated flows with slow
decay in the Kolmogorov width. In the presented LSTM-Nudge approach, we fuse
forecasts from a combination of imperfect GROM and uncertain state estimates,
with sparse Eulerian sensor measurements to provide more reliable predictions
in a dynamical data assimilation framework. We illustrate the idea with the
viscous Burgers problem, as a benchmark test bed with quadratic nonlinearity
and Laplacian dissipation. We investigate the effects of measurements noise and
state estimate uncertainty on the performance of the LSTM-Nudge behavior. We
also demonstrate that it can sufficiently handle different levels of temporal
and spatial measurement sparsity. This first step in our assessment of the
proposed model shows that the LSTM nudging could represent a viable realtime
predictive tool in emerging digital twin systems
A Method of Successive Corrections of the Control Subspace in the Reduced-Order Variational Data Assimilation
A version of the reduced control space four-dimensional variational method (R4DVAR) of data assimilation into numerical models is proposed. In contrast to the conventional 4DVAR schemes, the method does not require development of the tangent linear and adjoint codes for implementation. The proposed R4DVAR technique is based on minimization of the cost function in a sequence of low-dimensional subspaces of the control space. Performance of the method is demonstrated in a series of twin-data assimilation experiments into a nonlinear quasigeostrophic model utilized as a strong constraint. When the adjoint code is stable, R4DVAR\u27s convergence rate is comparable to that of the standard 4DVAR algorithm. In the presence of strong instabilities in the direct model, R4DVAR works better than 4DVAR whose performance is deteriorated because of the breakdown of the tangent linear approximation. Comparison of the 4DVAR and R4DVAR also shows that R4DVAR becomes advantageous when observations are sparse and noisy
Model Reduction for Parametrized Optimal Control Problems in Environmental Marine Sciences and Engineering
We propose reduced order methods as a suitable approach to face parametrized optimal control problems governed by partial differential equations, with applications in en- vironmental marine sciences and engineering. Environmental parametrized optimal control problems are usually studied for different configurations described by several physical and/or geometrical parameters representing different phenomena and structures. The solution of parametrized problems requires a demanding computational effort. In order to save com- putational time, we rely on reduced basis techniques as a reliable and rapid tool to solve parametrized problems. We introduce general parametrized linear quadratic optimal control problems, and the saddle-point structure of their optimality system. Then, we propose a POD-Galerkin reduction of the optimality system. Finally, we test the resulting method on two environmental applications: a pollutant control in the Gulf of Trieste, Italy and a solution tracking governed by quasi-geostrophic equations, in its linear and nonlinear version, describing North Atlantic Ocean dynamic. The two experiments underline how reduced order methods are a reliable and convenient tool to manage several environmental optimal control problems, for different mathematical models, geographical scale as well as physical meaning
