Title: Comparing theory based and higher-order reduced models for fusion simulation data

Abstract

We consider using regression to fit a theory-based log-linear ansatz, as well as higher order approximations, for the thermal energy confinement of a Tokamak as a function of device features. We use general linear models based on total order polynomials, as well as deep neural networks. The results indicate that the theory-based model fits the data almost as well as the more sophisticated machines, within the support of the data set. The conclusion we arrive at is that only negligible improvements can be made to the theoretical model, for input data of this type.

Regression-based reduced-order models to predict transient thermal output for enhanced geothermal systems

Journal Article Mudunuru, Maruti Kumar ; Karra, Satish ; Harp, Dylan Robert ; ... - Geothermics

Reduced-order modeling is a promising approach, as many phenomena can be described by a few parameters/mechanisms. An advantage and attractive aspect of a reduced-order model is that it is computational inexpensive to evaluate when compared to running a high-fidelity numerical simulation. A reduced-order model takes couple of seconds to run on a laptop while a high-fidelity simulation may take couple of hours to run on a high-performance computing cluster. The goal of this paper is to assess the utility of regression-based reduced-order models (ROMs) developed from high-fidelity numerical simulations for predicting transient thermal power output for an enhanced geothermal reservoirmore »« less

Reduced-Order Model for the Geochemical Impacts of Carbon Dioxide, Brine and Trace Metal Leakage into an Unconfined, Oxidizing Carbonate Aquifer, Version 2.1

Technical Report Bacon, Diana H.

The National Risk Assessment Partnership (NRAP) consists of 5 U.S DOE national laboratories collaborating to develop a framework for predicting the risks associated with carbon sequestration. The approach taken by NRAP is to divide the system into components, including injection target reservoirs, wellbores, natural pathways including faults and fractures, groundwater and the atmosphere. Next, develop a detailed, physics and chemistry-based model of each component. Using the results of the detailed models, develop efficient, simplified models, termed reduced order models (ROM) for each component. Finally, integrate the component ROMs into a system model that calculates risk profiles for the site. Thismore »« less

An Evolve-Then-Correct Reduced Order Model for Hidden Fluid Dynamics

Journal Article Pawar, Suraj ; Ahmed, Shady E. ; San, Omer ; ... - Mathematics

In this paper, we put forth an evolve-then-correct reduced order modeling approach that combines intrusive and nonintrusive models to take hidden physical processes into account. Specifically, we split the underlying dynamics into known and unknown components. In the known part, we first utilize an intrusive Galerkin method projected on a set of basis functions obtained by proper orthogonal decomposition. We then present two variants of correction formula based on the assumption that the observed data are a manifestation of all relevant processes. The first method uses a standard least-squares regression with a quadratic approximation and requires solving a rank-deficient linearmore »« less

Permeability prediction with artificial neural network modeling in the Venture gas field, offshore eastern Canada

Journal Article Huang, Z ; Shimeld, J ; Williamson, M ; ... - Geophysics

Estimating permeability from well log information in uncored borehole intervals is an important yet difficult task encountered in many earth science disciplines. Most commonly, permeability is estimated from various well log curves using either empirical relationships or some form of multiple linear regression (MLR). More sophisticated, multiple nonlinear regression (MNLR) techniques are not as common because of difficulties associated with choosing an appropriate mathematical model and with analyzing the sensitivity of the chosen model to the various input variables. However, the recent development of a class of nonlinear optimization techniques known as artificial neural networks (ANNs) does much to overcomemore »« less

A History of Regression and Related Model-Fitting in the Earth Sciences (1636?-2000)

Journal Article Howarth, Richard J. - Natural Resources Research (New York, N.Y.)

The (statistical) modeling of the behavior of a dependent variate as a function of one or more predictors provides examples of model-fitting which span the development of the earth sciences from the 17th Century to the present. The historical development of these methods and their subsequent application is reviewed. Bond's predictions (c. 1636 and 1668) of change in the magnetic declination at London may be the earliest attempt to fit such models to geophysical data. Following publication of Newton's theory of gravitation in 1726, analysis of data on the length of a 1{sup o} meridian arc, and the length ofmore »« less
