Exact coherent states underlying chaotic falling-film dynamics

Isaac J. G. Lewis, C. Ricardo Constante-Amores

Dynamical-systems approaches to spatiotemporal chaos have been developed primarily for single-phase flows, where the system state is defined by bulk velocity fields. Extending thes…

Stabilizing Rayleigh-Benard convection with reinforcement learning trained on a reduced-order model

Qiwei Chen, C. Ricardo Constante-Amores

Rayleigh-Benard convection (RBC) is a canonical system for buoyancy-driven turbulence and heat transport, central to geophysical and industrial flows. Developing efficient control…

Data-driven modeling of a settling sphere in a quiescent medium

Haoyu Wang, Isaac J. G. Lewis, Soohyeon Kang +3

We develop data-driven models to predict the dynamics of a freely settling sphere in a quiescent Newtonian fluid using experimentally obtained trajectories. Particle tracking veloc…

Low-dimensional multiscale dynamics of intermittent reversals in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection

Qiwei Chen, C. Ricardo Constante-Amores

We investigate whether a strongly turbulent flow with intermittent large-scale reorganizations admits a compact state-space description. As a representative high-dimensional chaoti…

Dynamics of a Data-Driven Low-Dimensional Model of Turbulent Minimal Pipe Flow

C. Ricardo Constante-Amores, Alec J. Linot, Michael D. Graham

The simulation of turbulent flow requires many degrees of freedom to resolve all the relevant times and length scales. However, due to the dissipative nature of the Navier-Stokes e…

Data-driven state-space and Koopman operator models of coherent state dynamics on invariant manifolds

C. Ricardo Constante-Amores, Michael D. Graham

The accurate simulation of complex dynamics in fluid flows demands a substantial number of degrees of freedom, i.e. a high-dimensional state space. Nevertheless, the swift attenuat…
