Stabilized weighted reduced order methods for parametrized advection-dominated optimal control problems governed by partial differential equations with random inputs

Abstract In this work, we analyze Parametrized Advection-Dominated distributed Optimal Control Problems with random inputs in a Reduced Order Model (ROM) context. All the simulations are initially based on a finite element method (FEM) discretization; moreover, a space-time approach is considered when dealing with unsteady cases. To overcome numerical instabilities that can occur in the optimality system for high values of the Péclet number, we consider a Streamline Upwind Petrov–Galerkin technique applied in an optimize-then-discretize approach. We combine this method with the ROM framework in order to consider two possibilities of stabilization: Offline-Only stabilization and Offline-Online stabilization. Moreover we consider random parameters and we use a weighted Proper Orthogonal Decomposition algorithm in a partitioned approach to deal with the issue of uncertainty quantification. Several quadrature techniques are used to derive weighted ROMs: tensor rules, isotropic sparse grids, Monte-Carlo and quasi Monte-Carlo methods. We compare all the approaches analyzing relative errors between the FEM and ROM solutions and the computational efficiency based on the speedup-index.
