Hartmann C, Latorre JC, Zhang W, Pavliotis GAet al., 2014, Optimal control of multiscale systems using reduced-order models, Journal of Computational Dynamics, Vol: 1, Pages: 279-306

We study optimal control of diffusions with slow and fast variables and address a question raised by practitioners: is it possible to first eliminate the fast variables before solving the optimal control problem and then use the optimal control computed from the reduced-order model to control the original, high-dimensional system? The strategy "first reduce, then optimize"-rather than "first optimize, then reduce"-is motivated by the fact that solving optimal control problems for high-dimensional multiscale systems is numerically challenging and often computationally prohibitive. We state suffcient and necessary conditions, under which the "first reduce, then control" strategy can be employed and discuss when it should be avoided. We further give numerical examples that illustrate the "first reduce, then optmize" approach and discuss possible pitfalls.

Using thermodynamic and variational principles we examine a basic phase field model for a mixture of two incompressible fluids in strongly perforated domains. With the help of the multiple scale method with drift and our recently introduced splitting strategy for Ginzburg-Landau/Cahn-Hilliard-type equations (Schmuck et al 2012 Proc. R. Soc. A 468 3705-24), we rigorously derive an effective macroscopic phase field formulation under the assumption of periodic flow and a sufficiently large Péclet number. As for classical convection-diffusion problems, we obtain systematically diffusion-dispersion relations (including Taylor-Aris-dispersion). Our results also provide a convenient computational framework to macroscopically track interfaces in porous media. In view of the well-known versatility of phase field models, our study proposes a promising model for many engineering and scientific applications such as multiphase flows in porous media, microfluidics, and fuel cells. © 2013 IOP Publishing Ltd & London Mathematical Society.

We study the dynamics of a colloidal fluid in the full position-momentum phase space, including hydrodynamic interactions, which strongly influence the non-equilibrium properties of the system. For large systems, the number of degrees of freedom prohibits direct simulation and a reduced model is necessary. Under standard assumptions, we derive a dynamical density functional theory (DDFT), which is a generalisation of many existing DDFTs, and shows good agreement with stochastic simulations.

We study the dynamics of a colloidal fluid including inertia and hydrodynamic interactions, two effects which strongly influence the nonequilibrium properties of the system. We derive a general dynamical density functional theory which shows very good agreement with full Langevin dynamics. In suitable limits, we recover existing dynamical density functional theories and a Navier-Stokes-like equation with additional nonlocal terms.

Consider the overdamped limit for a system of interacting particles in thepresence of hydrodynamic interactions. For two-body hydrodynamic interactionsand one- and two-body potentials, a Smoluchowski-type evolution equation isrigorously derived for the one-particle distribution function. This newequation includes a novel definition of the diffusion tensor. A comparison withexisting formulations of dynamic density functional theory is also made.
