The conceptual picture underlying resolvent analysis(RA) is that the nonlinear term in the Navier-Stokes(NS) equations provides an intrinsic forcing to the linear dynamics, a description inspired by control theory. The inverse of the linear operator, defined as the resolvent, is interpreted as a transfer function between the forcing and the velocity response. This inversion obscures the physical interpretation of the governing equations and is prohibitive to analytical manipulation, and for large systems leads to significant computational cost and memory requirements. In this work we suggest an alternative, inverse free, definition of the resolvent basis based on an extension of the Courant-Fischer-Weyl min-max principle in which resolvent modes are defined as stationary points of a constrained variational problem. This leads to a straightforward approach to approximate the resolvent (response) modes of complex flows as expansions in any basis. The proposed method avoids matrix

Resolvent analysis identifies the most responsive forcings and most receptive states of a dynamical system, in an input--output sense, based on its governing equations. Interest in the method has continued to grow during the past decade due to its po
tential to reveal structures in turbulent flows, to guide sensor/actuator placement, and for flow control applications. However, resolvent analysis requires access to high-fidelity numerical solvers to produce the linearized dynamics operator. In this work, we develop a purely data-driven algorithm to perform resolvent analysis to obtain the leading forcing and response modes, without recourse to the governing equations, but instead based on snapshots of the transient evolution of linearly stable flows. The formulation of our method follows from two established facts: $1)$ dynamic mode decomposition can approximate eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the underlying operator governing the evolution of a system from measurement data, and $2)$ a projection of the resolvent operator onto an invariant subspace can be built from this learned eigendecomposition. We demonstrate the method on numerical data of the linearized complex Ginzburg--Landau equation and of three-dimensional transitional channel flow, and discuss data requirements. The ability to perform resolvent analysis in a completely equation-free and adjoint-free manner will play a significant role in lowering the barrier of entry to resolvent research and applications.
An analysis of the statistics of the non-linear terms in resolvent analysis is performed in this work for turbulent Couette flow at low Reynolds number. Data from a direct numerical simulation of a minimal flow unit, at Reynolds number 400, is post-p
rocessed using Fourier analysis in both time and space, leading to the covariance matrix of the velocity. From the same data, we computed the non-linear terms of the Navier-Stokes equations (treated as forcing in the present formulation), which allowed us to compute the covariance matrix of the forcing for this case. The two covariances are related exactly by the resolvent operator; based on this, we explore the recovery of the velocity statistics from the statistics of the forcing as a function of the components of the forcing term. This is carried out for the dominant structures in this flow, which participate in the self-sustaining cycle of turbulence: (i) streamwise vortices and streaks, and (ii) spanwise coherent fluctuations of spanwise velocity. The present results show a dominance by four of the non-linear terms for the prediction of the full statistics of streamwise vortices and streaks; a single term is seen to be dominant for spanwise motions. A relevant feature observed in these cases is that forcing terms have significant coherence in space; moreover, different forcing components are also coherent between them. This leads to constructive and destructive interferences that greatly modify the flow response, and should thus be accounted for in modelling work.
Coherent turbulent wave-packet structures in a jet at Reynolds number 460000 and Mach number 0.4 are extracted from experimental measurements and are modeled as linear fluctuations around the mean flow. The linear model is based on harmonic optimal f
orcing structures and their associated flow response at individual Strouhal numbers, obtained from analysis of the global linear resolvent operator. These forcing-response wave packets (resolvent modes) are first discussed with regard to relevant physical mechanisms that provide energy gain of flow perturbations in the jet. Modal shear instability and the nonmodal Orr mechanism are identified as dominant elements, cleanly separated between the optimal and suboptimal forcing-response pairs. A theoretical development in the framework of spectral covariance dynamics then explicates the link between linear harmonic forcing-response structures and the cross-spectral density (CSD) of stochastic turbulent fluctuations. A low-rank model of the CSD at given Strouhal number is formulated from a truncated set of linear resolvent modes. Corresponding experimental CSD matrices are constructed from extensive two-point velocity measurements. Their eigenmodes (spectral proper orthogonal or SPOD modes) represent coherent wave-packet structures, and these are compared to their counterparts obtained from the linear model. Close agreement is demonstrated in the range of preferred mode Strouhal numbers, around a value of 0.4, between the leading coherent wave-packet structures as educed from the experiment and from the linear resolvent-based model.
An investigation of optimal feedback controllers performance and robustness is carried out for vortex shedding behind a 2D cylinder at low Reynolds numbers. To facilitate controller design, we present an efficient modelling approach in which we utili
se the resolvent operator to recast the linearised Navier-Stokes equations into an input-output form from which frequency responses can be computed. The difficulty of applying modern control design techniques to complex, high-dimensional flow systems is thus overcome by using low-order models identified from these frequency responses. The low-order models are used to design optimal control laws using $mathcal{H}_{infty}$ loop shaping. Two distinct control arrangements are considered, both of which employ a single-input and a single-output. In the first control arrangement, a velocity sensor located in the wake drives a pair of body forces near the cylinder. Complete suppression of shedding is observed up to a Reynolds number of $Re=110$. Due to the convective nature of vortex shedding and the corresponding time delays, we observe a fundamental trade-off: the sensor should be close enough to the cylinder to avoid any excessive time lag, but it should be kept sufficiently far from the cylinder to measure any unstable modes developing downstream. It is found that these two conflicting requirements become more difficult to satisfy for larger Reynolds numbers. In the second control arrangement, we consider a practical setup with a body-mounted force sensor and an actuator that oscillates the cylinder according to the lift measurement. It is shown that the system is stabilised only up to $Re=100$, and we demonstrate why the performance of the resulting feedback controllers deteriorates much more rapidly with increasing Reynolds number. The challenges of designing robust controllers for each control setup are also analysed and discussed.
Modal and nonmodal analyses of fluid flows provide fundamental insight into the early stages of transition to turbulence. Eigenvalues of the dynamical generator govern temporal growth or decay of individual modes, while singular values of the frequen
cy response operator quantify the amplification of disturbances for linearly stable flows. In this paper, we develop well-conditioned ultraspherical and spectral integration methods for frequency response analysis of channel flows of Newtonian and viscoelastic fluids. Even if a discretization method is well-conditioned, we demonstrate that calculations can be erroneous if singular values are computed as the eigenvalues of a cascade connection of the frequency response operator and its adjoint. To address this issue, we utilize a feedback interconnection of the frequency response operator with its adjoint to avoid computation of inverses and facilitate robust singular value decomposition. Specifically, in contrast to conventional spectral collocation methods, the proposed method (i) produces reliable results in channel flows of viscoelastic fluids at high Weissenberg numbers ($sim 500$); and (ii) does not require a staggered grid for the equations in primitive variables.
