A new approach is introduced to improve the accuracy of neural networks (NN) used to solve governing equations. The method, called a constrained NN closure model, prevents spurious oscillations that can occur when small errors build up and violate physical reality. This is achieved by embedding the NN in the discretized equations and strictly enforcing a constraint during training, inspired by total variation diminishing (TVD) methods for hyperbolic conservation laws. The resulting model demonstrates improved performance in recovering linear and nonlinear hyperbolic phenomena, anti-diffusion, and non-oscillatory properties. The constrained NN closure model is also applied to subgrid-scale modeling of a turbulent reacting flow, successfully suppressing spurious oscillations that violate solution boundedness.

Imagine using computers to help solve complex problems in science and engineering. A new way to do this uses special kinds of computer models called neural networks (NN). These models can get better at solving problems if they are set up correctly, but sometimes they can produce weird results that don’t make sense. This paper introduces a new method to prevent these weird results from happening. It works by adding rules to the model during training to ensure it produces reasonable solutions. The new approach is shown to be very effective in solving certain types of problems and could have many practical applications.
