We investigate theoretically and numerically the use of the Least-Squares Finite-element method (LSFEM) to approach data-assimilation problems for the steady-state, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Our LSFEM discretization is based on a stress-velocity-pressure (S-V-P) first-order formulation, using discrete counterparts of the Sobolev spaces $H({rm div}) times H^1 times L^2$ respectively. Resolution of the system is via minimization of a least-squares functional representing the magnitude of the residual of the equations. A simple and immediate approach to extend this solver to data-assimilation is to add a data-discrepancy term to the functional. Whereas most data-assimilation techniques require a large number of evaluations of the forward-simulations and are therefore very expensive, the approach proposed in this work uniquely has the same cost as a single forward run. However, the question arises: what is the statistical model implied by this choice? We answer this within the Bayesian framework, establishing the latent background covariance model and the likelihood. Further we demonstrate that - in the linear case - the method is equivalent to application of the Kalman filter, and derive the posterior covariance. We practically demonstrate the capabilities of our method on a backward-facing step case. Our LSFEM formulation (without data) is shown to have good approximation quality, even on relatively coarse meshes - in particular with respect to mass-conservation and reattachment location. Adding limited velocity measurements from experiment, we show that the method is able to correct for discretization error on very coarse meshes, as well as correct for the influence of unknown and uncertain boundary-conditions.

We introduce and analyze a space-time least-squares method associated to the unsteady Navier-Stokes system. Weak solution in the two dimensional case and regular solution in the three dimensional case are considered. From any initial guess, we constr uct a minimizing sequence for the least-squares functional which converges strongly to a solution of the Navier-Stokes system. After a finite number of iterates related to the value of the viscosity constant, the convergence is quadratic. Numerical experiments within the two dimensional case support our analysis. This globally convergent least-squares approach is related to the damped Newton method when used to solve the Navier-Stokes system through a variational formulation.
Recently, physics-driven deep learning methods have shown particular promise for the prediction of physical fields, especially to reduce the dependency on large amounts of pre-computed training data. In this work, we target the physics-driven learnin g of complex flow fields with high resolutions. We propose the use of emph{Convolutional neural networks} (CNN) based U-net architectures to efficiently represent and reconstruct the input and output fields, respectively. By introducing Navier-Stokes equations and boundary conditions into loss functions, the physics-driven CNN is designed to predict corresponding steady flow fields directly. In particular, this prevents many of the difficulties associated with approaches employing fully connected neural networks. Several numerical experiments are conducted to investigate the behavior of the CNN approach, and the results indicate that a first-order accuracy has been achieved. Specifically for the case of a flow around a cylinder, different flow regimes can be learned and the adhered twin-vortices are predicted correctly. The numerical results also show that the training for multiple cases is accelerated significantly, especially for the difficult cases at low Reynolds numbers, and when limited reference solutions are used as supplementary learning targets.

Discrete Boltzmann model (DBM) is a type of coarse-grained mesoscale kinetic model derived from the Boltzmann equation. Physically, it is roughly equivalent to a hydrodynamic model supplemented by a coarse-grained model for the relevant thermodynamic non-equilibrium (TNE) behaviours. The Navier-Stokes (NS) model is a traditional macroscopic hydrodynamic model based on continuity hypothesis and conservation laws. In this study, the two models are compared from two aspects, physical capability and computational cost, by simulating two kinds of flow problems including the thermal Couette flow and a Mach 3 step problem. In the cases where the TNE effects are weak, both the two models give accurate results for the hydrodynamic behaviour. Besides, DBM can provide more detailed non-equilibrium information, while the NS is more efficient if concern only the density, momentum, energy and their derived quantities. It is concluded that, if the TNE effects are strong or are to be investigated, the NS is insufficient while DBM is a good choice. While in the cases where the TNE effects are weak and only the macro flow fields are to be studied, the NS is more preferable.

The hydrostatic equilibrium state is the consequence of the exact hydrostatic balance between hydrostatic pressure and external force. Standard finite volume or finite difference schemes cannot keep this balance exactly due to their unbalanced trunca tion errors. In this study, we introduce an auxiliary variable which becomes constant at isothermal hydrostatic equilibrium state and propose a well-balanced gas kinetic scheme for the Navier-Stokes equations with a global reconstruction. Through reformulating the convection term and the force term via the auxiliary variable, zero numerical flux and zero numerical source term are enforced at the hydrostatic equilibrium state instead of the balance between hydrostatic pressure and external force. Several problems are tested numerically to demonstrate the accuracy and the stability of the new scheme, and the results confirm that, the new scheme can preserve the exact hydrostatic solution. The small perturbation riding on hydrostatic equilibria can be calculated accurately. The viscous effect is also illustrated through the propagation of small perturbation and the Rayleigh-Taylor instability. More importantly, the new scheme is capable of simulating the process of converging towards hydrostatic equilibrium state from a highly non-balanced initial condition. The ultimate state of zero velocity and constant temperature is achieved up to machine accuracy. As demonstrated by the numerical experiments, the current scheme is very suitable for small amplitude perturbation and long time running under gravitational potential.
In this paper we present a fourth-order in space and time block-structured adaptive mesh refinement algorithm for the compressible multicomponent reacting Navier-Stokes equations. The algorithm uses a finite volume approach that incorporates a fourth -order discretization of the convective terms. The time stepping algorithm is based on a multi-level spectral deferred corrections method that enables explicit treatment of advection and diffusion coupled with an implicit treatment of reactions. The temporal scheme is embedded in a block-structured adaptive mesh refinement algorithm that includes subcycling in time with spectral deferred correction sweeps applied on levels. Here we present the details of the multi-level scheme paying particular attention to the treatment of coarse-fine boundaries required to maintain fourth-order accuracy in time. We then demonstrate the convergence properties of the algorithm on several test cases including both nonreacting and reacting flows. Finally we present simulations of a vitiated dimethyl ether jet in 2D and a turbulent hydrogen jet in 3D, both with detailed kinetics and transport.
