On the fourth-order accurate compact ADI scheme for solving the unsteady Nonlinear Coupled Burgers' Equations

The two-dimensional unsteady coupled Burgers' equations with moderate to severe gradients, are solved numerically using higher-order accurate finite difference schemes; namely the fourth-order accurate compact ADI scheme, and the fourth-order accurate Du Fort Frankel scheme. The question of numerical stability and convergence are presented. Comparisons are made between the present schemes in terms of accuracy and computational efficiency for solving problems with severe internal and boundary gradients. The present study shows that the fourth-order compact ADI scheme is stable and efficient

The 9-bit model has been verified by several test cases. Numerical simulations, including 1D and 2D cases, of each problem are shown respectively. Comparisons are made between numerical predictions and analytic solutions or available numerical results from previous researchers. It turned out that the 9-bit model is computationally effective and accurate for all different mathematical-physical equations studied. The main benefits of the new model proposed is that it is faster than the previous existing models and has a better accuracy.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft

Proper orthogonal decomposition closure models for fluid flows: Burgers equation

This paper puts forth several closure models for the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) reduced order modeling of fluid flows. These new closure models, together with other standard closure models, are investigated in the numerical simulation of the Burgers equation. This simplified setting represents just the first step in the investigation of the new closure models. It allows a thorough assessment of the performance of the new models, including a parameter sensitivity study. Two challenging test problems displaying moving shock waves are chosen in the numerical investigation. The closure models and a standard Galerkin POD reduced order model are benchmarked against the fine resolution numerical simulation. Both numerical accuracy and computational efficiency are used to assess the performance of the models

A machine learning framework for data driven acceleration of computations of differential equations

We propose a machine learning framework to accelerate numerical computations of time-dependent ODEs and PDEs. Our method is based on recasting (generalizations of) existing numerical methods as artificial neural networks, with a set of trainable parameters. These parameters are determined in an offline training process by (approximately) minimizing suitable (possibly non-convex) loss functions by (stochastic) gradient descent methods. The proposed algorithm is designed to be always consistent with the underlying differential equation. Numerical experiments involving both linear and non-linear ODE and PDE model problems demonstrate a significant gain in computational efficiency over standard numerical methods

Stability of Correction Procedure via Reconstruction With Summation-by-Parts Operators for Burgers' Equation Using a Polynomial Chaos Approach

In this paper, we consider Burgers' equation with uncertain boundary and initial conditions. The polynomial chaos (PC) approach yields a hyperbolic system of deterministic equations, which can be solved by several numerical methods. Here, we apply the correction procedure via reconstruction (CPR) using summation-by-parts operators. We focus especially on stability, which is proven for CPR methods and the systems arising from the PC approach. Due to the usage of split-forms, the major challenge is to construct entropy stable numerical fluxes. For the first time, such numerical fluxes are constructed for all systems resulting from the PC approach for Burgers' equation. In numerical tests, we verify our results and show also the advantage of the given ansatz using CPR methods. Moreover, one of the simulations, i.e. Burgers' equation equipped with an initial shock, demonstrates quite fascinating observations. The behaviour of the numerical solutions from several methods (finite volume, finite difference, CPR) differ significantly from each other. Through careful investigations, we conclude that the reason for this is the high sensitivity of the system to varying dissipation. Furthermore, it should be stressed that the system is not strictly hyperbolic with genuinely nonlinear or linearly degenerate fields
