SUMMARY:Frontiers in Scientific Machine Learning Seminar - Pan Du (University of Notre Dame): Conditional neural field latent diffusion model for generating spatiotemporal turbulence
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Pan Du received his bachelor’s degree in Thermal Engineering from Tsinghua University and completed his master’s in Mechanical Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. He is currently a Ph.D. candidate in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Notre Dame under the guidance of Prof. Jian-Xun Wang. Pan’s research spans multiple disciplines\, including scientific machine learning\, Bayesian inference\, uncertainty quantification\, geometric deep learning\, and computational fluid mechanics. \nConditional neural field latent diffusion model for generating spatiotemporal turbulence\nAbstract: Pan Du will present the CoNFiLD model\, a novel generative framework for simulating complex turbulent flows in 3D irregular domains. While traditional eddy-resolved simulations are accurate\, their high computational cost limits usability. CoNFiLD addresses this by integrating neural field encoding with latent diffusion\, enabling efficient\, probabilistic modeling of spatiotemporal dynamics. It supports a wide range of tasks—such as flow super-resolution\, sparse reconstruction\, and data restoration—via Bayesian conditional sampling\, all without retraining. Results across diverse turbulent scenarios highlight its potential for advancing data-driven turbulence modeling.

SUMMARY:Frontiers in Scientific Machine Learning Seminar - Ashwin Renganathan (Penn State): Sample-efficient and Principled Decision-making  with Expensive Stochastic Oracles
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link \nBio: Ashwin Renganathan is an assistant professor of aerospace engineering at Penn State and holds a joint appointment with the Penn State Institute of Computational and Data Sciences (ICDS). He directs the Computational complex engineered Systems Design Laboratory (CSDL) at Penn State. He is broadly interested in developing novel and scalable computational techniques for surrogate modeling\, uncertainty quantification\, and numerical optimization\, with a focus on aerospace applications. He earned his Ph.D. in aerospace engineering from Georgia Tech and previously completed a postdoctoral appointment in applied mathematics at the Argonne National Laboratory. \nSample-efficient and Principled Decision-making with Expensive Stochastic Oracles\nAbstract: Modern day engineering decision-making involves one or more computer simulation oracles of an engineered system which can be queried on-demand to learn the system response to control input. Querying simulation oracles\, also called “computer experiments”\, incur a non-trivial computational cost\, which increases with the level of fidelity in the underlying models. For instance\, a realistic computational aerodynamic simulation of an aircraft can cost several thousands of CPU hours to compute—anything more than a few dozens of such simulations is prohibitive. Therefore\, a central goal of engineering decision-making is to optimally design computer experiments\, to maximize the value of information extracted at minimal computational effort.\nIn this talk\, we will address problems anchored in\, what we coin\, the “decision-making triad” which includes: surrogate modeling\, uncertainty quantification (UQ)\, and numerical optimization/control. Specifically\, using variants of a probabilistic surrogate model and a Bayesian decision theoretic framework\, we will show that problems in the decision-making triad can be solved in a principled\, theoretically sound and\, yet (computational) cost-effective manner. We will show demonstrations on applications in computational aerodynamics.

SUMMARY:The Orren C. Mohler Prize Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Volker Springel\, Professor\, Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics & Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich\, Germany \n“Simulated Universes: Origin and Fate of Our Milky Way”\nGalaxies contain hundreds of billions of stars and display a wide variety of shapes and sizes. But these cosmic lighthouses are just markers for even much vaster structures lying underneath. In fact\, astrophysicists are convinced that the vast majority of the energy and matter content of the Universe does not consist of ordinary matter\, but is dominated by enigmatic dark matter and dark energy components. Supercomputer simulations play a crucial role in testing this seemingly daring cosmological hypothesis. The astonishing performance of today’s supercomputers makes it possible to link the relatively simple initial conditions left by the Big Bang directly with the complex\, developed state of the present universe and thus trace the life of galaxies in detail. They show how a cosmic network of dark matter is created over 13 billion years\, at the intersections of which structures of various sizes form\, from small dwarf galaxies to enormous galaxy clusters. The supercomputers also make predictions about the specific formation history of the Milky Way\, and how it should develop in the future. At the same time\, the simulations can also help us to explain extreme phenomena such as the effect of supermassive black holes on the cosmic evolution of galaxies. \nSponsored by the Department of Astronomy

However\, focusing on the expansion of China’s automatic ambient air quality monitoring network in the last decade (2012-2022)\, I argue that technology is being utilized as a tool to emphasize optics but overlook the substantive problems. I illustrate the idea with multiple original georeferenced data sets on the automatic monitoring network\, pollution sources\, and satellite-derived vegetation density across time and space. I show that\, while the automation initiative has improved the data quality in some ways\, the undersupply of automatic monitoring stations\, over-represented clean locations\, and non-random missing pollution records continue to contribute to inaccurate air pollution information.

SUMMARY:MICDE Ph.D. Student Seminars: Bernardo Pacini & Srinivasan Arunachalam
DESCRIPTION:The MICDE PhD Student Seminar Series showcases the research of students in the Ph.D. in Scientific Computing. These events are open to the public\, but we ask that you register to attend the seminar. If you have any questions\, please email micde-events@umich.edu. \nRegister to attend this seminar \nGradient-Based Multidisciplinary Design Optimization for Propeller Design\nUrban air mobility (UAM) vehicles have taken form as advanced rotorcraft with sets of wings\, rotors\, canards\, and other appendages. Noise generation is an important technical barrier that must be addressed to prevent these vehicles from causing excessive disturbance to the communities they are intended to service. To understand the noise these vehicles generate\, and to develop designs that can minimize disturbance\, there is a need for analysis and optimization tools specifically for the conceptual design and sizing phase of urban air mobility vehicle development. Such tools must be computationally efficient to allow for the repeated analyses needed for design optimization. This presentation will review the work being carried out at the University of Michigan\, coupling aerodynamic\, structural\, and aeroacoustic disciplines within the multidisciplinary gradient-based design optimization framework OpenMDAO. While aerostructural optimization has been performed previously\, coupling with aeroacoustics is challenging given the requirement for time accurate simulations and the associated computational cost of such analyses. By leveraging multiple model fidelities and utilizing efficient gradient calculation techniques\, such as the adjoint method and algorithmic differentiation\, these disciplines can be formulated into an optimization framework that can be applied to UAM vehicle designs. This presentation will review the work completed to date\, including preliminary results\, and expand on the future goals of the project\, working towards a broader optimization framework for rotorcraft vehicle design optimization. \nBernardo Pacini\, Ph.D. candidate in Mechanical Engineering and Scientific Computing \nBernardo Pacini is a Ph.D. Candidate at the University of Michigan focusing his research on aerodynamic\, structural\, and aeroacoustic modeling for multidisciplinary design optimization of urban air mobility vehicles. He is a member of the Multidisciplinary Design Optimization Laboratory led by Professor Joaquim R. R. A. Martins and of the Computational Aerosciences Laboratory led by Professor Karthik Duraisamy. Bernardo’s work to date is on developing an aero-structural-acoustic analysis framework that can be implemented within the multidisciplinary design optimization process for rotorcraft and urban air mobility vehicle design. \nRegister to attend this seminar \nValidation of a multivariate non-Gaussian\, non-stationary wind pressure simulation model for performance-based wind engineering\nWith a growing interest in probabilistic performance assessments of building systems subjected to wind loads\, there is a demand for accurately representing building-specific wind loads\, considering their non-Gaussian and non-stationary features. While typical wind tunnel data collected for a set of discrete wind directions provide a single realization of stationary pressures\, there is currently no experimentally validated model for the stochastic simulation of non-Gaussian and non-stationary wind pressures that can be calibrated to wind tunnel datasets. Such a model is essential for simulating building aerodynamics\, especially the stochastic\, path-dependent responses associated with time-varying wind speed and direction experienced by a building during hurricane wind events. This talk will review a recently developed theoretical formulation for generating these stochastic pressures. Through carefully designed tests conducted at the University of Florida wind tunnel facility\, the formulation was extensively validated with respect to its ability to capture trends over time\, occurrences of peaks\, and time-varying frequency content. \nSrinivasan Arunachalam\, Ph.D. candidate in Civil and Environmental Engineering and Scientific Computing \nSrinivasan Arunachalam is a PhD candidate in Civil and Environmental Engineering. His research interests lie in uncertainty quantification and understanding the inelastic behavior of wind-excited structures. He is excited about the algorithmic developments that enable efficient reliability assessments\, as well as the evolving insights into the physics of extreme responses and their implications for structural design. \nRegister to attend this seminar
