A networked-oscillator-based analysis is performed to examine and control the transfer of kinetic energy for periodic bluff body flows. The dynamics of energy fluctuations in the flowfield are described by a set of oscillators defined by conjugate pairs of spatial proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) modes.

Show moreA networked-oscillator-based analysis is performed to examine and control the transfer of kinetic energy for periodic bluff body flows. The dynamics of energy fluctuations in the flowfield are described by a set of oscillators defined by conjugate pairs of spatial proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) modes. To extract the network of interactions among oscillators, impulse responses of the oscillators to amplitude and phase perturbations are tracked. Tracking small energy inputs and using linear regression, a networked-oscillator model is constructed that reveals energy exchange among the modes. The model captures the nonlinear interactions among the modal oscillators through a linear approximation. A large collection of system responses is aggregated to capture the general network structure of oscillator interactions. The present networked-oscillator model describes the modal perturbation dynamics more accurately than the empirical Galerkin reduced-order model. The linear network model for nonlinear dynamics is subsequently utilized to design a model-based feedback controller. The controller suppresses the modal amplitudes that result in wake unsteadiness leading to drag reduction. The strength of the proposed approach is demonstrated for a canonical example of two-dimensional unsteady flow over a circular cylinder. The present formulation enables the characterization of modal interactions to control fundamental energy transfers in unsteady bluff body flows.

A network community-based reduced-order model is developed to capture key interactions among coherent structures in high-dimensional unsteady vortical flows. The present approach is data-inspired and founded on network-theoretic techniques to identify important vortical communities that are comprised of vortical elements that share similar dynamical behavior. The overall interaction-based physics of the high-dimensional flow field is distilled into the vortical community centroids,...
Show moreA network community-based reduced-order model is developed to capture key interactions among coherent structures in high-dimensional unsteady vortical flows. The present approach is data-inspired and founded on network-theoretic techniques to identify important vortical communities that are comprised of vortical elements that share similar dynamical behavior. The overall interaction-based physics of the high-dimensional flow field is distilled into the vortical community centroids, considerably reducing the system dimension. Taking advantage of these vortical interactions, the proposed methodology is applied to formulate reduced-order models for the intercommunity dynamics of vortical flows, and predict lift and drag forces on bodies in wake flows. We demonstrate the capabilities of these models by accurately capturing the macroscopic dynamics of a collection of discrete point vortices, and the complex unsteady aerodynamic forces on a circular cylinder and an airfoil with a Gurney flap. The present formulation is found to be robust against simulated experimental noise and turbulence due to its integrating nature of the system reduction.
