Abstract Simulating plasma turbulence presents significant computational challenges due to the complex interplay of multi-scale dynamics. In this work, we investigate use convolutional neural networks improve efficiency simulations, focusing on Hasegawa-Wakatani model. The are trained learn closure terms in large eddy providing a computationally cheaper alternative high-resolution numerical solvers for capturing effects high-frequency components. This study is first successfully apply...

We investigate uncertainty estimation and multimodality via the non-deterministic predictions of Bayesian neural networks (BNNs) in fluid simulations. To this end, we deploy BNNs three challenging experimental test-cases increasing complexity: show that BNNs, when used as surrogate models for steady-state flow predictions, provide accurate physical together with sensible estimates uncertainty. Further, experiment perturbed temporal sequences from Navier-Stokes simulations evaluate...
Turbulence in fluids, gases, and plasmas remains an open problem of both practical fundamental importance. Its irreducible complexity usually cannot be tackled computationally a brute-force style. Here, we combine Large Eddy Simulation (LES) techniques with Machine Learning (ML) to retain only the largest dynamics explicitly, while small-scale are described by ML-based sub-grid-scale model. Applying this novel approach self-driven plasma turbulence allows us remove large parts inertial...
