Abstract [en]

Developing reduced-order models applicable to fluid-dynamics problems involving complex geometries and different flow conditions remains a critical challenge for turbulent flows. This study introduces VIVALDy, a machine-learning framework that employs a hybrid β -variational autoencoder-generative adversarial network architecture with masked convolutions to extract dominant flow features into a compact latent space while preserving fidelity at solid-fluid interfaces. A bidirectional transformer then models the temporal evolution of these features, learning to predict flow trajectories from minimal sensor inputs. This two-stage approach enables the transformer to map sensor measurements to dominant flow variables identified by the autoencoder, advancing reduced-order modeling capabilities for real-time flow prediction. The effectiveness of the framework is demonstrated through application to a problem relevant to vortex-induced vibration energy harvesting systems, reconstructing the turbulent flow around a one-degree-of-freedom moving cylinder. Validated against experimental data spanning fluid-structure interaction regimes of interest, VIVALDy accurately predicts different flow states using only the cylinder displacement. The framework demonstrates adequate performance in both reconstruction accuracy and statistical fidelity across diverse operating conditions, enabling efficient prediction of the turbulent flow phenomena governing vortex-induced vibration.
