Physics-informed machine learning approach for reconstructing Reynolds stress modeling discrepancies based on DNS data

Jian-Xun Wang, Jin-Long Wu, Heng Xiao · 16 Mar 2017

We show that the discrepancies in Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) modeled Reynolds stresses can be explained by mean flow features. A physics-informed machine learning framework is proposed to improve the predictive capabilities of RANS models by leveraging existing direct numerical simulations databases.

Perspective on machine learning for advancing fluid mechanics

Michael P. Brenner, Jeff D. Eldredge, Jonathan B. Freund · 16 Oct 2019

A perspective is presented on how machine learning methods might advance fluid mechanics. Current limitations are discussed, though the potential impact is deemed high, so long as outcomes are held to the long-standing critical standards that should guide studies of flow physics.

Predictive large-eddy-simulation wall modeling via physics-informed neural networks

Xiang I. A. Yang, Sana Zafar, Jianxun Wang et al. · 15 Mar 2019

A study shows that when trained using channel flow data at just one Reynolds number and informed with known flow physics, the neural network works robustly as a wall model in large-eddy simulation (LES) of channel flow at any Reynolds number. It also outperforms the equilibrium wall model in LES of a 3D boundary layer…

Predictions of turbulent shear flows using deep neural networks

Prem A. Srinivasan, Luca Guastoni, Hossein Azizpour et al. · 10 May 2019

The long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network is used to predict the temporal evolution of a low-order representation of near-wall turbulence. This network leads to excellent predictions of turbulence statistics and of the system dynamics, characterized by Poincar\'e maps and Lyapunov exponents.

Physical Review Fluids template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Physical Review Fluids format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Physical Review Fluids template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official American Physical Society format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Physical Review Fluids use?
Physical Review Fluids uses Numbered (APS) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, Physical Review Fluids 12, 45 (2023).
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Physical Review Fluids?
No. DocuGuru generates the revtex4-2 LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a American Physical Society-ready Physical Review Fluids document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Physical Review Fluids template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Physical Review Fluids format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Physical Review Fluids?
American Physical Society journal (REVTeX 4.2). It is a physics journal, published by American Physical Society.
Can I export a submission-ready Physical Review Fluids PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Physical Review Fluids template (the revtex4-2 class) that is ready to submit to American Physical Society, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Physical Review Fluids template cost?
You can start writing in the Physical Review Fluids template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Physical Review Fluids PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
