Data-Driven and Equation-Informed Optimal Control of Lagrangian pairs in turbulent flows
- 👤 Speaker: Chiara Calascibetta
- 📅 Date & Time: Monday 26 February 2024, 13:00 - 14:00
- 📍 Venue: MR5, CMS
Abstract
We show how to apply optimal control theory to catch a passive drifting target in a turbulent flow by an autonomous flowing agent with limited maneuverability. For the case of a perfect knowledge of the environment, we show that Optimal Control theory can overcome chaotic dispersion capturing the Lagrangian target in the shortest possible time [1]. We also provide baselines using heuristic policies based on local-only hydrodynamical cues [2]. How to extend this approach to model-free Reinforcement Learning tools is also briefly discussed [3]. Data are open downloadable from TURB Lagr [4], a database of more than 300K three-dimensional trajectories of tracer particles advected by a fully developed homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flow.
