SIERRA Multimechanics Module: Aria Thermal Theory Manual - Version 4.58

Aria is a Galerkin finite element based program for solving coupled-physics problems described by systems of PDEs and is capable of solving nonlinear, implicit, transient and direct-to-steady state problems in two and three dimensions on parallel architectures. The suite of physics currently supported by Aria includes thermal energy transport, species transport, and electrostatics as well as generalized scalar, vector and tensor transport equations. Additionally, Aria includes support for manufacturing process flows via the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations specialized to a low Reynolds number (R e < 1) regime. Enhanced modeling support of manufacturing processing is made possible through use of either arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) and level set based free and moving boundary tracking in conjunction with quasi-static nonlinear elastic solid mechanics for mesh control. Coupled physics problems are solved in several ways including fully-coupled Newtons method with analytic or numerical sensitivities, fully-coupled Newton-Krylov methods and a loosely-coupled nonlinear iteration about subsets of the system that are solved using combinations of the aforementioned methods. Error estimation, uniform and dynamic-adaptivity and dynamic load balancing are some of Arias more advanced capabilities.

DEEP NEURAL NETWORKS FOR NON-LINEAR MODEL-BASED ULTRASOUND RECONSTRUCTION

Ultrasound reflection tomography is widely used to image large complex specimens that are only accessible from a single side, such as well systems and nuclear power plant containment walls. Typical methods for inverting the measurement rely on delay-and-sum algorithms that rapidly produce reconstructions but with significant artifacts. Recently, model-based reconstruction approaches using a linear forward model have been shown to significantly improve image quality compared to the conventional approach. Nonetheless, even these techniques result in artifacts for complex objects because of the inherent non-linearity of the ultrasound forward model.In this paper, we propose a non-iterative model-based reconstruction method for inverting measurements that are based on non-linear forward models for ultrasound imaging. Our approach involves obtaining an approximate estimate of the reconstruction using a simple linear back-projection and training a deep neural network to refine this to the actual reconstruction. As a result, we apply our method to simulated and experimental ultrasound data to demonstrate dramatic improvements in image quality compared to the delay-and-sum approach and the linear model-based reconstruction approach.
