Scalar Field: Online#

Online phase of the Empirical Interpolation Method applied to scalar fields

Preparation#

The structure of the case study folder is the following (in this example Folder3 and Folder4 are the test case folders)

>> ./Study_case
	>> /Folder_1  			
	>> /Folder_2
	>> /Folder_3  			
	>> /Folder_4		
	>> /EIM_(fieldName)
		>> /0		
		>> /constant        		
		>> /system
			controlDict
			blockMeshDict
			...
			EIMsolverDict  <--- Dictionary needed for the input parameters	
		>> /(fieldName)_EIM_Offline_files

The EIMsolverDict must be put inside ./Study_case/EIM_(fieldName)/system/

An example of EIMsolverDict can be found in application/EIM/ScalarEIM_Online, which requires the following entries:

Online_parameters
{
	field      T;			<---- ScalarField on which EIM is performed 
	mfNumber   20;			<---- number of EIM magic functions to use
	foldersList  ( 
			"Folder_3" 
			"Folder_4") ;	<---- List of folder names containig the snapshots to be reconstructed
}

Usage#

Inside ./Study_case/EIM_(fieldName) launch

ScalarEIM_Online

To include folder “0” use

ScalarEIM_Online -withZero

To perform on a specified region (for multi-region cases) use

ScalarEIM_Online -region <regionName>

Results#

The interpolant and the residual field, defined as

\[r_M = \left| \phi-\mathcal{I}_M[\phi]\,\right|\]

are stored in the correspondent snapshot folders

>> ./Study_case
	>> /Folder_1  		  		
	>> /Folder_2
	>> /Folder_3
		>> /0
			TEIMInterpolant  <---(fieldName) EIM interpolant obtained with mfNumber basis
			TEIMresidual     <---(fieldName) EIM residual obtained with mfNumber basis
		>> /1	
			TEIMInterpolant
			TEIMresidual
		>>  ...			
				
	>> /Folder_4
		>> /0
			TEIMInterpolant 
			TEIMresidual
		>> /1	
			TEIMInterpolant
			TEIMresidual
		>> /...		
			
	>> /EIM_T		
		>> /0		        				
		>> /system			
		>> /constant
		>> /T_EIM_Offline_files
		>> /T_EIM_Online_files
			maximum_L2_relative_error.txt <---- max L2 absolute error as a function of basis number
			average_L2_relative_error.txt <---- max L2 realtive error as a function of basis number

The absolute and relative error are computed as

\[E_M = || \phi-\mathcal{I}_M[\phi]||_{L^2}\qquad \epsilon_M = \frac{|| \phi-\mathcal{I}_M[\phi]||_{L^\infty}}{||\phi||_{L^2}}\]

recalling that the norms are defined as

\[|| \phi ||_{L^2(\Omega)}^2 =\int_\Omega \phi^2\, d\Omega\]
