PEINR: A Physics-enhanced Implicit Neural Representation for High-Fidelity Flow Field Reconstruction

摘要

Implicit neural representation (INR) has now been thrust into the limelight with its flexibility in high-fidelity flow field reconstruction tasks. However, the lack of standard benchmarking datasets and the grid independence assumption for INR-based methods hinder progress and adoption in real-world simulation scenarios. Moreover, naive adoptions of existing INR frameworks suffer from limited accuracy in capturing fine-scale structures and spatiotemporal dynamics. Tacking these issues, we first introduce HFR-Beach, a 5.4 TB public large-scale CFD dataset with 33,600 unsteady 2D and 3D vector fields for reconstructing high-fidelity flow fields. We further present PEINR, a physics-enhanced INR framework, to enrich the flow fields by concurrently enhancing numerical-precision and grid-resolution. Specifically, PEINR is mainly composed of physical encoding and transformer-based spatiotemporal fuser (TransSTF). Physical encoding decouples temporal and spatial components, employing Gaussian coordinate encoding and localized encoding techniques to capture the nonlinear characteristics of spatiotemporal dynamics and the stencil discretization of spatial dimensions, respectively. TransSTF fuses both spatial and temporal information via transformer for capturing long-range temporal dependencies. Qualitative and quantitative experiments and demonstrate that PEINR outperforms state-of-the-art INR-based methods in reconstruction quality.
