Salmoiraghi","A. Scardigli","H. Telib","G. Rozza"],"abstract":"The work provides an integrated pipeline for the model order reduction of turbulent flows around parametrised geometries in aerodynamics. In particular, Free-Form Deformation is applied for geometry parametrisation, whereas two different reduced-order models based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) are employed in order to speed-up the full-order simulations: the first method exploits POD with interpolation, while the second one is based on domain decomposition. For the sampling of the parameter space, we adopt a Greedy strategy coupled with Constrained Centroidal Voronoi Tessellations, in order to guarantee a good compromise between space exploration and exploitation. The proposed framework is tested on an industrially relevant application, i.e. the front-bumper morphing of the DrivAer car model, using the finite-volume method for the full-order resolution of the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1803.04688v2","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1803.04688v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"free-form-deformation-mesh-morphing-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/mathLab/EZyRB","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null},{"paper_slug":"free-form-deformation-mesh-morphing-and","repo_url":"https://github.com/mathLab/PyGeM","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
