Machine learning in fluid dynamics: A critical assessment

Kunihiko Taira, Georgios Rigas, Kai Fukami

The fluid dynamics community has increasingly adopted machine learning to analyze, model, predict, and control a wide range of flows. These methods offer powerful computational cap…

Phase autoencoder for rapid data-driven synchronization of rhythmic spatiotemporal patterns

Koichiro Yawata, Ryo Sakuma, Kai Fukami +2

We present a machine-learning method for data-driven synchronization of rhythmic spatiotemporal patterns in reaction-diffusion systems. Based on the phase autoencoder [Yawata {\it…

Optimally time-dependent modes of vortex gust-airfoil interactions

Yonghong Zhong, Alireza Amiri-Margavi, Hessam Babaee +1

We find the optimally time-dependent (OTD) orthogonal modes about a time-varying flow generated by a strong gust vortex impacting a NACA 0012 airfoil. This OTD analysis reveals the…

Single-snapshot machine learning for super-resolution of turbulence

Kai Fukami, Kunihiko Taira

Modern machine-learning techniques are generally considered data-hungry. However, this may not be the case for turbulence as each of its snapshots can hold more information than a…

Data-driven transient lift attenuation for extreme vortex gust-airfoil interactions

Kai Fukami, Hiroya Nakao, Kunihiko Taira

We present a data-driven feedforward control to attenuate large transient lift experienced by an airfoil disturbed by an extreme level of discrete vortex gust. The current analysis…
