针对带有运动边界非定常流动系统的数据驱动与物理融合建模,Sundar等人提出了浸入边界感知(IBA)框架,结合物理信息神经网络(PINNs)与浸入边界法(IBM),避免了特定于案例的坐标系变换。本文在此基础上,通过引入序列学习策略应对速度重构与压力恢复中的长时间积分挑战。传统PINNs在长时间积分中面临时间稀疏性、长时域及丰富频谱内容等问题。为此,提出一种支持移动边界的PINN,设计两种策略:一是时间推进逐步扩大时间域,但存在误差累积;二是时间分解,将时间域划分为更小片段,并结合迁移学习,有效降低误差传播与计算复杂度。关键发现包括:对于准周期流动,采用优先时空采样的时间分解方法可显著提升压力恢复与气动载荷重构的准确性和效率;对于长时域问题,将时间域分段并使用多个子网络,简化问题、保证稳定性且减小网络规模。本研究揭示了传统PINNs在流固耦合问题长期积分中的局限性,证实了基于分解的策略在缓解误差累积、降低计算成本和处理复杂动力学方面的优势。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
For a data-driven and physics combined modelling of unsteady flow systems with moving immersed boundaries, Sundar {\it et al.} introduced an immersed boundary-aware (IBA) framework, combining Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) and the immersed boundary method (IBM). This approach was beneficial because it avoided case-specific transformations to a body-attached reference frame. Building on this, we now address the challenges of long time integration in velocity reconstruction and pressure recovery by extending this IBA framework with sequential learning strategies. Key difficulties for PINNs in long time integration include temporal sparsity, long temporal domains and rich spectral content. To tackle these, a moving boundary-enabled PINN is developed, proposing two sequential learning strategies: - a time marching with gradual increase in time domain size, however, this approach struggles with error accumulation over long time domains; and - a time decomposition which divides the temporal domain into smaller segments, combined with transfer learning it effectively reduces error propagation and computational complexity. The key findings for modelling of incompressible unsteady flows past a flapping airfoil include: - for quasi-periodic flows, the time decomposition approach with preferential spatio-temporal sampling improves accuracy and efficiency for pressure recovery and aerodynamic load reconstruction, and, - for long time domains, decomposing it into smaller temporal segments and employing multiple sub-networks, simplifies the problem ensuring stability and reduced network sizes. This study highlights the limitations of traditional PINNs for long time integration of flow-structure interaction problems and demonstrates the benefits of decomposition-based strategies for addressing error accumulation, computational cost, and complex dynamics.
