Abstract
Computationally expensive physics simulations remain necessary and challenging in the engineering community. Applications that require many queries of the high dimensional model are particularly expensive, including design optimization and uncertainty quantification. Time-critical applications, such as model predictive control, cannot currently rely on high-fidelity simulations due to the time and storage requirements. Projection-based reduced order models (PROMs) offer a promising solution by approximating the full-order simulations while significantly reducing the computational complexity. This dissertation explores projection-based reduced order models (PROM) in fluid dynamics simulations. The objective is to develop a tool for analyzing and applying PROMs in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) problems. The PROM framework is implemented in the SU2 solver using the Least-Squares Petrov-Galerkin equations. Using this tool, a novel hyper-reduction method is investigated. Additionally, a comparative analysis between PROMs and a nonlinear autoencoder model using latent space systems identification is presented. The comparative analysis guides the selection of appropriate modeling approaches for different flow scenarios that contain shocks.
