Recovering the Parameter $α$ in the Simplified Bardina Model through Continuous Data Assimilation

Débora A. F. Albanez, Maicon José Benvenutti, Jing Tian

TL;DR

This paper develops a continuous data assimilation scheme to recover the lengthscale parameter $\alpha$ in the three-dimensional simplified Bardina turbulence model using observations of a finite set of Fourier modes. By embedding a recursive update for a surrogate parameter $\beta$ within a nudged assimilated system, it proves that $\beta_n$ converges to $\alpha$ and the assimilated state $w_n$ converges to the true solution $u$ under explicit, verifiable conditions. The main contributions are a constructive update rule, detailed auxiliary estimates, and a rigorous convergence proof showing exponential decay of both the parameter and state errors. The results provide a theoretical foundation for parameter identification in alpha-regularization turbulence models and set the stage for future computational implementations and data-driven applications.

Abstract

In this study, we develop a continuous data assimilation algorithm to recover the parameter $α$ in the simplified Bardina model. Our method utilizes the observations of finitely many Fourier modes by using a nudging framework that involves recursive parameter updates. We provide a rigorous convergence analysis, showing that the approximate parameter approaches the true value under suitable conditions, while the approximate solution also converges to the true solution.

Key Result

Theorem 1

Consider $u$ solution of Bardina1Leray with initial condition $u(0) \in \dot{V}_{2}$ and $w_{0} \in \dot{V}_{2}$. Let $0<\varepsilon<\alpha^{2}_{0}$ and $\beta_{1} \in [\alpha_{0},\alpha_{1}]$, with $\alpha_0,\alpha_1$ satisfying estimates00. Suppose that for each $n \in \mathbb{N}$, there exist $\t with $t_{n+1} >\hat{t}_{n}\geq t_{n}$, where $t_{n}$ is the final time from the previous iteration
