Abstract

Designing estimation algorithms for systems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs) such as fluid flows is challenging due to the high-dimensional and oftentimes nonlinear nature of the dynamics, as well as their dependence on unobserved physical parameters. In this paper, we propose two different lightweight and effective methodologies for real-time state estimation of PDEs in the presence of parametric uncertainties. Both approaches combine a Kalman filter with a data-driven polytopic linear reduced-order model obtained by dynamic mode decomposition (DMD). Using examples involving the nonlinear Burgers and Navier-Stokes equations, we demonstrate accurate estimation of both the state and the unknown physical parameter along system trajectories corresponding to various physical parameter values.
