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
Applied Koopman Operator Theory for Power Systems Technology
Koopman operator is a composition operator defined for a dynamical system
described by nonlinear differential or difference equation. Although the
original system is nonlinear and evolves on a finite-dimensional state space,
the Koopman operator itself is linear but infinite-dimensional (evolves on a
function space). This linear operator captures the full information of the
dynamics described by the original nonlinear system. In particular, spectral
properties of the Koopman operator play a crucial role in analyzing the
original system. In the first part of this paper, we review the so-called
Koopman operator theory for nonlinear dynamical systems, with emphasis on modal
decomposition and computation that are direct to wide applications. Then, in
the second part, we present a series of applications of the Koopman operator
theory to power systems technology. The applications are established as
data-centric methods, namely, how to use massive quantities of data obtained
numerically and experimentally, through spectral analysis of the Koopman
operator: coherency identification of swings in coupled synchronous generators,
precursor diagnostic of instabilities in the coupled swing dynamics, and
stability assessment of power systems without any use of mathematical models.
Future problems of this research direction are identified in the last
concluding part of this paper.Comment: 31 pages, 11 figure
