• Abstract summary: We explore the use of Neural Ordinary Differential Equations for fluid flow simulation. Test problems we consider include incompressible flow around a cylinder and real-world applications of shallow water hydrodynamics in riverine and estuarine systems. Our findings indicate that Neural ODEs provide an elegant framework for stable and accurate evolution of latent-space dynamics with a promising potential of extrapolatory predictions.

• Abstract: Model reduction for fluid flow simulation continues to be of great interest across a number of scientific and engineering fields. Here, we explore the use of Neural Ordinary Differential Equations, a recently introduced family of continuous-depth, differentiable networks (Chen et al 2018), as a way to propagate latent-space dynamics in reduced order models. We compare their behavior with two classical non-intrusive methods based on proper orthogonal decomposition and radial basis function interpolation as well as dynamic mode decomposition. The test problems we consider include incompressible flow around a cylinder as well as real-world applications of shallow water hydrodynamics in riverine and estuarine systems. Our findings indicate that Neural ODEs provide an elegant framework for stable and accurate evolution of latent-space dynamics with a promising potential of extrapolatory predictions. However, in order to facilitate their widespread adoption for large-scale systems, significant effort needs to be directed at accelerating their training times. This will enable a more comprehensive exploration of the hyperparameter space for building generalizable Neural ODE approximations over a wide range of system dynamics.

  This paper proposes a conceptual shift to modeling low-dimensional dynamical systems by departing from the traditional two-step modeling process. Instead of first discovering a closed-form equation and then analyzing it, our approach, direct semantic modeling, predicts the semantic representation of the dynamical system. Our approach not only simplifies the modeling pipeline but also enhances the transparency and flexibility of the resulting models.

In the experiments, Neural Laplace shows superior performance in modelling and extrapolating the trajectories of diverse classes of DEs.
