Bayesian neural network correction of RANS turbulence models with uncertainty quantification in separated flows

Tyler Buchanan, Ali Eidi, Richard P. Dwight

Data-driven correction of turbulence models offers a promising route for improving Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) predictions, but quantifying uncertainty in such correctio…

The Closure Challenge: a benchmark task for machine learning in turbulence modelling

Ryley McConkey, Tyler Buchanan, Tess Smidt +3

We introduce a field-wide benchmark challenge for machine learning in Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence modelling. Though open-source datasets exist for training da…

Data-driven turbulence modelling for magnetohydrodynamic flows in annular pipes

Alejandro Montoya Santamaria, Tyler Buchanan, Francesco Fico +3

We present a data-driven approach to Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes turbulence closure modelling in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows. In these flows the magnetic field interacting…
