Cavitation Acoustic Perturbation Equations: A Computational Framework for Source-Resolved Multiphase Hydroacoustics

Zhi Cheng, Rajeev K. Jaiman

This work develops a cavitation-consistent acoustic perturbation framework for predicting sound generation and propagation in cavitating flows. Unlike conventional acoustic perturb…

Acoustics-based Active Control of Unsteady Flow Dynamics using Reinforcement Learning Driven Synthetic Jets

Siddharth Rout, Khai Phan, Chao-An Lin

Flow generated noise are caused shear flows and, hence, they can be used as feedback to control the flow. Existing flow control uses state variables like velocity, pressure, or vor…

A finite-difference summation-by-parts, conditionally stable partitioned algorithm for conjugate heat transfer problems

Sarah Nataj, David C. Del Rey Fernández, David Brown +1

In this work, we design and analyze a novel, provably conditionally stable, weakly coupled partitioned scheme to solve the conjugate heat transfer (CHT) problem. We consider a mode…

A Mesh-Adaptive Hypergraph Neural Network for Unsteady Flow Around Oscillating and Rotating Structures

Rui Gao, Zhi Cheng, Rajeev K. Jaiman

Graph neural networks, recently introduced into the field of fluid flow surrogate modeling, have been successfully applied to model the temporal evolution of various fluid flow sys…

An Efficient and Accurate Surrogate Modeling of Flapping Dynamics in Inverted Elastic Foils using Hypergraph Neural Networks

Aarshana R. Parekh, Rui Gao, Rajeev K. Jaiman

Cantilevered elastic foils can undergo self-induced, large-amplitude flapping when subject to fluid flow, a widely observed phenomenon of fluid-structure interaction, from flutteri…

HeatGen: A Guided Diffusion Framework for Multiphysics Heat Sink Design Optimization

Hadi Keramati, Morteza Sadeghi, Rajeev K. Jaiman

This study presents a generative optimization framework based on a guided denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM) that leverages surrogate gradients to generate heat sink de…
