The framework combines a super-resolution generative adversarial neural network (SRGAN) with down-sampling modules (DMs), integrating the residual of the continuity equation into the loss function. DMs selectively filter out components with excessive energy dissipation in low-resolution fields prior to the super-resolution process. The framework iteratively applies the SRGAN and DM procedure to fully capture the energy cascade of multi-scale flow structures, collectively termed the SRGAN-based energy cascade framework (EC-SRGAN). Despite being trained solely on turbulent channel flow data (via \"zero-shot transfer\"), EC-SRGAN exhibits remarkable generalization in predicting TBL small-scale velocity fields, accurately reproducing wavenumber spectra compared to DNS results. Furthermore, a super-resolution core is trained at a specific super-resolution ratio. By leveraging this pre-trained super-resolution core, EC-SRGAN efficiently reconstructs TBL fields at multiple super-resolution ratios from various levels of low-resolution inputs, showcasing strong flexibility. By learning turbulent scale invariance, EC-SRGAN demonstrates robustness across different TBL datasets. These results underscore EC-SRGAN potential for generating and predicting wall turbulence with high flexibility, offering promising applications in addressing diverse TBL-related challenges.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-07-22T12:59:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "wall turbulence", "generalized zero-shot learning", "high-flexibility reconstruction", "tbl small-scale velocity fields", "high-resolution turbulent boundary layer" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
