    Computation of error model for the inverse bioheat transfer problem
    (Dalian University of Technology, 2018) Gnanasekaran, N.; Vishweshwara, P.S.
    An inverse estimation of size and location of tumor is proposed in this paper using Bayesian framework. The forward model comprises of the Pennes equation and solved using commercial software. The forward solution of the problem is validated against the available literature and the results are found to be promising. Estimation of the size and location of the tumor is attempted based on Bayesian framework along with the Markov chain Monte Carlo method. This paper also demonstrates 2D and 3D modelling of the cancerous tissue and exploits the advantage of 2D model in the computation of MCMC method. An Approximation Error Model (AEM) is proposed in order to statistically account the model error during the estimation of the unknown parameters. The results of the AEM provide a new trend in the parametric study of cancerous tissue. © 2018 by the authors of the abstracts.

    A novel framework for the estimation of interfacial heat transfer coefficient using Bat algorithm during solidification of metal casting
    (Toronto Metropolitan University, 2019) Vishweshwara, P.S.; Gnanasekaran, N.; Arun, M.
    In the present work, the interfacial heat transfer coefficient (IHTC) at the mold metal interface is estimated during solidification of Al-4.5wt%Cu alloy using ANN-Bat-Bayesian framework. The forward model comprises of a one dimensional transient governing equation for the solidification of metal casting and is solved using explicit finite difference scheme with the available IHTC correlation from the literature. Within the range of values of constants of IHTC correlation, a set of numerical simulation is performed and corresponding temperature output is trained using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The network created acts a fast forward model replacing the FDM scheme during IHTC estimation thus reducing computational time. Bat algorithm is used as inverse method along with the Bayesian framework, that drives towards the accurate retrieval of unknown parameters. © 2019, Toronto Metropolitan University.

    A Surrogate Forward Model Using Artificial Neural Networks in Conjunction with Bayesian Computations for 3D Conduction-Convection Heat Transfer Problem
    (Springer, 2020) Kumar, M.K.; Vishweshwara, P.S.; Gnanasekaran, N.
    The present work describes the determination of heat flux at the boundary for a conjugate heat transfer problem based on a coupled three-dimensional conduction-convection fin numerical model, also referred to as complete model. The model is developed using commercially available software and solved along with Navier–Stokes equation in order to acquire the required temperature distribution. An inverse analysis is proposed by treating the boundary heat flux as unknown while the temperatures of the fin are known. The inverse analysis is greatly accomplished with the help of Bayesian framework that combines the solution of the forward model and the simulated measurements. Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is applied to explore the sample space that drives samples to proper convergence and the selection or acceptance of the new samples is performed using Metropolis–Hastings algorithm. Thus, the novelty of the present work is the use of artificial neural network (ANN) as surrogate model, that not only retains the full nature of the complete model but also acts as a fast forward model in the inverse analysis, within the Bayesian framework that quantifies the uncertainty of heat flux. The results of the present work emphasize that even for noise-added temperature data the final estimates are very close to the actual values and the uncertainty of the unknown heat flux is reported in terms of standard deviation accompanied by mean and maximum a posteriori (MAP). © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    Simultaneous estimation of unknown parameters using a-priori knowledge for the estimation of interfacial heat transfer coefficient during solidification of Sn–5wt%Pb alloy—an ANN-driven Bayesian approach
    (Springer, 2019) Vishweshwara, P.S.; Gnanasekaran, N.; Arun, M.
    The present methodology focuses on model reduction in which the prevalent one-dimensional transient heat conduction equation for a horizontal solidification of Sn–5wt%Pb alloy is replaced with Artificial Neural Network (ANN) in order to estimate the unknown constants present in the interfacial heat transfer coefficient correlation. As a novel approach, ANN-driven forward model is synergistically combined with Bayesian framework and Genetic algorithm to simultaneously estimate the unknown parameters and modelling error. Gaussian noise is then added to the temperature distribution obtained using the forward approach to represent real-time experiments. The hallmark of the present work is to reduce the computational time of both the forward and the inverse methods and to simultaneously estimate the unknown parameters using a-priori engineering knowledge. The results of the present methodology prove that the simultaneous estimation of unknown parameters can be effectively obtained only with the use of Bayesian framework. © 2019, Indian Academy of Sciences.

    Inverse estimation of heat flux under forced convection conjugate heat transfer in a vertical channel fully filled with metal foam
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2022) Trilok, G.; Vishweshwara, P.S.; Gnanasekaran, G.
    In this work, for the first time, a heat flux at the boundary is estimated for a conjugate heat transfer under forced convection in the presence of high porosity metal foams. For the forward problem a vertical channel experimental set up reported in the literature is considered. The metal foam placed in the vertical channel is subjected to constant heat flux through aluminum plate and airflow of various velocities is passed through vertical channel for removal of heat from the high porosity metal foam placed in the vertical channel. Six different velocities are considered and the required temperature distribution of the aluminum plate is obtained by solving Darcy extended Forchheimer and Local Thermal non-equilibrium models for metal foams. The forward problem, created using computational fluid dynamics in ANSYS-FLUENT, is substituted with Neural Network for faster computation of the forward problem. The maximum errors between the computational fluid dynamics and Artificial Neural Network models for the heat flux values of 466.66, 666.66 and 1133.3 W/m2 are found to be 0.086, 0.043, 0.092 respectively. The heat flux to the forward problem is treated as unknown and the same is estimated using an inverse method that couples Particle Swarm Optimization with Bayesian framework. The result of inverse estimation of exact temperature data shows that for a heat flux of 1266.64 W/m2 the error is found to be 1.6e−4%. Similarly, for the noise added temperature data, the absolute % error in heat flux of 599.985, 733.315 and 1266.635 W/m2 is 4.80e−2%, 2.20e−2%, 2.30e−2% respectively. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd
