• Abstract summary: We present a novel machine learning approach for data assimilation applied in fluid mechanics, based on adjoint-optimization augmented by Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) models. We obtain our results using direct numerical simulations based on a Finite Element Method (FEM) solver; a two-fold interface between the GNN model and the solver allows the GNN's predictions to be incorporated into post-processing steps of the FEM analysis.

• Abstract: We present a novel machine learning approach for data assimilation applied in fluid mechanics, based on adjoint-optimization augmented by Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) models. We consider as baseline the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, where the unknown is the meanflow and a closure model based on the Reynolds-stress tensor is required for correctly computing the solution. An end-to-end process is cast; first, we train a GNN model for the closure term. Second, the GNN model is introduced in the training process of data assimilation, where the RANS equations act as a physics constraint for a consistent prediction. We obtain our results using direct numerical simulations based on a Finite Element Method (FEM) solver; a two-fold interface between the GNN model and the solver allows the GNN's predictions to be incorporated into post-processing steps of the FEM analysis. The proposed scheme provides an excellent reconstruction of the meanflow without any features selection; preliminary results show promising generalization properties over unseen flow configurations.

We show that our GNN-based closure model may be learned in a data-limited scenario by interpreting closure modeling as a solver-constrained optimization.

  Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have effectively been demonstrated in solving forward and inverse differential equation problems. PINNs are trapped in training failures when the target functions to be approximated exhibit high-frequency or multi-scale features. In this paper, we propose to employ implicit gradient descent (ISGD) method to train PINNs for improving the stability of training process.

  We argue that the Gauss-Newton approximation should be understood as a local linearization of the underlying Bayesian neural network (BNN) Because we use this linearized model for posterior inference, we should also predict using this modified model instead of the original one. We refer to this modified predictive as "GLM predictive" and show that it effectively resolves common underfitting problems of the Laplace approximation.
