Fluids You Can Trust: Property-Preserving Operator Learning for Incompressible Flows

The paper introduces a kernel‑based operator learning method that preserves key physical properties—such as incompressibility, periodicity, and turbulence—of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. By mapping input functions to expansion coefficients in a property‑preserving kernel basis, the method guarantees that predicted velocity fields analytically maintain these properties. The authors provide theoretical convergence guarantees, develop efficient computational techniques for large‑scale training, and demonstrate significant accuracy and speed improvements over neural operators on 2D and 3D flow benchmarks.

Linearized PINN with pretrained nonlinear layers

The paper introduces a linearized Physics-Informed Neural Network (lPINN), a reduced‑order neural basis approach for solving forward and inverse differential equations. In an offline phase, lPINN learns continuous, differentiable neural basis functions from numerical solutions, which are then frozen for new problem instances; the online solution is obtained by minimizing the governing‑equation residual with additional constraints. Experiments on advection‑diffusion, Burgers', and nonlinear pendulum equations show that lPINN achieves lower solution and parameter errors than vanilla PINNs while reducing online inference times by up to three orders of magnitude, and its continuous representation generalizes to finer meshes without retraining.

Advances in Scientific Machine Learning for Coupled Fluid Flow and Transport

This chapter reviews recent advances in Scientific Machine Learning (SciML) for modeling coupled fluid flow and transport phenomena governed by the incompressible Navier-Stokes and scalar transport equations. Such systems, found in applications like turbidity currents and thermal convection, feature strong nonlinear coupling and multiscale behavior that make high-fidelity simulations computationally expensive.
