In this review we summarize existing trends of flow control used to improve the aerodynamic efficiency of wings. We first discuss active methods to control turbulence, starting with flat-plate geometries and building towards the more complicated flow around wings. Then, we discuss active approaches to control separation, a crucial aspect towards achieving high aerodynamic efficiency. Furthermore, we highlight methods relying on turbulence simulation, and discuss various levels of modelling. Finally, we thoroughly revise data-driven methods, their application to flow control, and focus on deep reinforcement learning (DRL). We conclude that this methodology has the potential to discover novel control strategies in complex turbulent flows of aerodynamic relevance.

<p>Turbulent flows may destabilise riverbeds and banks, transporting sediment or underscouring hydraulic infrastructure built near water bodies. For example, scour is a significant challenge that can affect the stability of bridge foundations as the transport of sediment around a bridge pier may cause structural instabilities and catastrophic failures. The aim of this study is to use machine learning techniques & data driven algorithms to predict how energetic turbulent flow events can result in the removal of individual sediment grains, resting on the bed surface or on the protective armour layer around built infrastructure. </p><p>The flume experiments involve flow and particle motion data gathering campaigns [1]. Turbulent flow data are collected upstream the exposed target particle using acoustic Doppler velocimetry. Particle's motion data are gathered using novel micro-electro-mechanical sensors embedded within its waterproof casing, for a range of flow conditions. The obtained data are fed into neural networks having distinct algorithmic complexity (inputs, levels and neutrons). A comparison of the performance of the various model architectures, as well as with past ones [2], is conducted to identify the optimal predictive algorithm for the configuration tested. Sensor data fusion combined with artificial intelligence techniques are shown to provide a unique tool for live and robust data-driven predictions to help tackle significant engineering problems, such as geomorphological activity and scouring of infrastructure (eg bridge piers and embankments) due to turbulent flows, which become increasingly more challenging, under the scope of climate change and intensifying extreme weather hazards.</p><p> </p><p>References</p><p>[1] Valyrakis, M., Farhadi, H. 2017.

A data-driven model-free framework is introduced for the calculation of reduced-order models (ROMs) capable of accurately predicting time-mean responses to external forcings, or forcings needed for specified responses, e.g. for control, in fully turbulent flows. The framework is based on using the fluctuation–dissipation theorem (FDT) in the space of a limited number of modes obtained from dynamic mode decomposition (DMD). Use of the DMD modes as the basis functions, rather than the commonly used proper orthogonal decomposition modes, resolves a previously identified problem in applying FDT to high-dimensional non-normal turbulent flows. Employing this DMD-enhanced FDT method ($\text{FDT}_{DMD}$), a linear ROM with horizontally averaged temperature as state vector is calculated for a 3D Rayleigh–Bénard convection system at a Rayleigh number of$10^{6}$using data obtained from direct numerical simulation. The calculated ROM performs well in various tests for this turbulent flow, suggesting$\text{FDT}_{DMD}$as a promising method for developing ROMs for high-dimensional turbulent systems.
