Generalizable turbulence closures across bluff-body shapes by PINN-based solver-agnostic training

Zhen Zhang, Theo Käufer, Louise Ronglan +2

Data-driven turbulence closures are usually calibrated by inverse methods that embed a CFD solver in the loop, tying the model to a particular discretization and requiring every it…

Body-Free Simulation of Three-Dimensional Turbulent Cylinder Wakes

Zhicheng Wang, Theo Käufer, Khemraj Shukla +2

We present a body-free simulation framework for three-dimensional turbulent cylinder wakes, in which the upstream cylinder is not explicitly resolved. Instead, the incompressible N…

Effect of Turbulence-Closure Consistency on Airfoil Identification

Zhen Zhang, George Em Karniadakis

We consider an inverse flow problem in which the airfoil shape is identified from its wake signature, namely the velocity field in the wake of a target airfoil. This is an ill-pose…

GIMLET: Generalizable and Interpretable Model Learning through Embedded Thermodynamics

Suguru Shiratori, Elham Kiyani, Khemraj Shukla +1

We develop a data-driven framework for discovering constitutive relations in models of fluid flow and scalar transport. Under the assumption that velocity and/or scalar fields are…

PINNs4Drops: Video-conditioned physics-informed neural networks for two-phase flow reconstruction

Maximilian Dreisbach, Elham Kiyani, Jochen Kriegseis +2

Two-phase flow phenomena underpin critical technologies such as hydrogen fuel cells, spray cooling, and combustion, where droplet dynamics govern performance and efficiency. Conven…

Learning Turbulent Flows with Generative Models: Super-resolution, Forecasting, and Sparse Flow Reconstruction

Vivek Oommen, Siavash Khodakarami, Aniruddha Bora +2

Neural operators are promising surrogates for dynamical systems but when trained with standard L2 losses they tend to oversmooth fine-scale turbulent structures. Here, we show that…
