We propose a supervised learning methodology for use of the random feature model as a data-driven surrogate for operators mapping between spaces of functions. Although our methodology is quite general, we consider operators defined by partial differential equations (PDEs); here, the inputs and outputs are themselves functions, with the input parameters being functions required to specify a...

Partial differential equations (PDEs) are commonly used to model complex systems in applied sciences. Methods for estimating PDE parameters require repeatedly solving PDEs numerically under thousands of candidate parameter values, and thus the computational load is high and expensive. To make these problems tractable we use reduced-order models (ROMs) to reduce the computational cost of PDE...

The mass of a nucleus is its fundamental quantity. It dictates the stability of a particular nucleus, the type of decays and nuclear reactions it can undergo, and much more. Yet after decades of experimental efforts, we are unable to experimentally measure the masses of thousands of exotic isotopes.

Friction brakes can exhibit high-intensity vibrations in the frequency range above 1 kHz, which is typically known as squeal. Those vibrations are self-excited due to the friction-interface between brake pads and disk. Decades of research have been spent on modelling this phenomenon, but even today predictive modelling is out of reach. The root causes, amongst others, are considered to be the...

Modeling and simulations are a pillar in the development of complex technical systems. However, for time-critical applications a conduction of high-fidelity simulations is not always feasible. To mitigate this computational bottleneck model order reduction (MOR) can be applied. For nonlinear models, linear MOR approaches are only practicable to a limited extend. Nonlinear approaches, on the...

Model order reduction for advection dominated problems has always been not effective due to the slow decay of the Kolmogorov $N$-width of the problems. Even very simple problems, such as linear transport equations of sharp gradients, show already this behavior. This difficulty can be overcome with different techniques. What we propose is to change the original solution manifold thanks to a...

This study aims to model transonic airfoil-gust interaction and the gust response on transonic aileron-buzz problems using high fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) based deep learning approach. It first explores the rich physics associated with these interactions, which show strong flow field nonlinearities arising from the complex shock-boundary...

Physics-informed neural networks are applied to incompressible two-phase flow problems. We investigate the forward problem, where the governing equations are solved from initial and boundary conditions, as well as the inverse problem, where continuous velocity and pressure fields are inferred from data on the interface position scattered across time. We employ a volume of fluid approach, i.e....

When conducting measurement on existing structures, e.g. collecting the time-response of a building, and trying to compute the same response by a suitable computational method, one often notices discrepancies between the measurement and model data. These discrepancies are due to a wide range of errors, done in both the measurement and the modelling. The model errors can stem from uncertainty...

With the continuously increasing size of the wind turbine blades, the complexity of the blade casting process and the risk of failures has also increased. The vacuum-assisted resin transfer moulding (VATRM) production process at the Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy facility in Aalborg, Denmark, does not permit the visual inspection of the process. Hence a sensor system (possibly virtual) for...

In the field of environmental modelling, especially modelling problems in the water resources sector, the acquisition of observation data is usually expensive, and/or the underlying model representations are incredibly complex. The spatially distributed models typically used for water quantity and quality prediction yield significant uncertainties even after being carefully calibrated, and...

90. The use of machine learning in Computational Fluid Dynamics for an economic approach to flow optimization problems.

As in many engineering fields, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) lives upon modelling reality in a feasible way to come to a desired solution. One good example in fluid dynamics is turbulence, which is mathematical modelled in most simulations, but there are many cases where it is necessary to resolve turbulent eddy’s to take crucial effects into consideration. If this is coupled with a flow...
