While analytical solutions of critical (phase) transitions in physical systems are abundant for simple nonlinear systems, such analysis remains intractable for real-life dynamical systems. A key example of such a physical system is thermoacoustic instability in combustion, where prediction or early detection of an onset of instability is a hard technical challenge, which needs to be addressed to build safer and more energy-efficient gas turbine engines powering aerospace and energy industries. The instabilities arising in combustion chambers of engines are mathematically too complex to model. To address this issue in a data-driven manner instead, we propose a novel deep learning architecture called 3D convolutional selective autoencoder (3D-CSAE) to detect the evolution of self-excited oscillations using spatiotemporal data, i.e., hi-speed videos taken from a swirl-stabilized combustor (laboratory surrogate of gas turbine engine combustor). 3D-CSAE consists of filters to learn, in a hierarchical fashion, the complex visual and dynamic features related to combustion instability. We train the 3D-CSAE on frames of videos obtained from a limited set of operating conditions. We select the 3D-CSAE hyper-parameters that are effective for characterizing hierarchical and multiscale instability structure evolution by utilizing the dynamic information available in the video. The proposed model clearly shows performance improvement in detecting the precursors of instability. The machine learning-driven results are verified with physics-based off-line measures. Advanced active control mechanisms can directly leverage the proposed online detection capability of 3D-CSAE to mitigate the adverse effects of combustion instabilities on the engine operating under various stringent requirements and conditions.
Due to the advances in computing and sensing, deep learning (DL) has widely been applied in smart energy systems (SESs). These DL-based solutions have proved their potentials in improving the effectiveness and adaptiveness of the control systems. How
We exploit recent results in quantifying the robustness of neural networks to input variations to construct and tune a model-based anomaly detector, where the data-driven estimator model is provided by an autoregressive neural network. In tuning, we
Traditional methods for solvability region analysis can only have inner approximations with inconclusive conservatism. Machine learning methods have been proposed to approach the real region. In this letter, we propose a deep active learning framewor
A thin solid (e.g., paper), burning against an oxidizing wind, develops a fingering instability with two decoupled length scales. The spacing between fingers is determined by the Peclet number (ratio between advection and diffusion). The finger width
The rapid growth of distributed energy resources potentially increases power grid instability. One promising strategy is to employ data in power grids to efficiently respond to abnormal events (e.g., faults) by detection and location. Unfortunately,
