Reduced Basis method applied to large scale non linear multiphysics problems
Résumé
The Laboratoire National des Champs Magnétiques Intenses (LNCMI) is a French large scale
facility enabling researchers to perform experiments in the highest possible magnetic field. The
design and optimization of such magnets require the prediction of performance metrics which can be
the magnetic field in the center, maximum stresses, or maximum and average temperatures. These
outputs are expressed as functionals of field variables associated with a set of coupled parametrized
PDEs involving materials properties as well as magnet operating conditions. These inputs are not
exactly known and form uncertainties that are essential to consider, since existing magnet technologies
are pushed to the limits.
Solutions of a multi-physics model involving electro-thermal, magnetostatics and mechanics are
requested to evaluate these implicit input-output relationships, but represent a huge computational
time when applied on real geometries. The models typically include mesh (resp. finite element approximations)
with (tens of) millions of elements (resp. degrees of freedom) requiring high performance
computing solutions. Moreover, the non affine dependance of materials properties on temperature
render these models non linear and non affinely parametrized.
The reduced basis (RB) method offers a rapid and reliable evaluation of this input-output relationship
in a real-time or many-query context for a large class of problems among which non linear
and non affinely parametrized ones. This methodology is well adapted to this context of many model
evaluations for parametric studies, inverse problems and uncertainty quantification.
In this talk, we will present the RB method applied to the 3D non-linear and non affinely parametrized
multi-physics model used in a real magnet design context. This reduced model enjoys features of reduced
basis framework available with opensource library Feel++. (Finite Element method
Embedded Language in C++, http://www.feelpp.org). Validations and examples will be presented
for small to large magnet models, involving parametric studies and uncertainty quantifications.
