| contents | Long-horizon prediction of three-dimensional (3D) wall-bounded turbulence with machine-learning methods remains a challenging task, due to the rapid accumulation of autoregressive errors and the substantially computational cost. To address these challenges, we present a hybrid machine-learning framework, in which a channel-time-attention Swin-UNet (CTA-Swin-UNet) and a multi-time-scale fusion correction (MTFC) strategy are developed to predict the turbulent flow fields in a wall-parallel plane, with affordable computational cost. Then, 3D flow fields are reconstructed via a resolvent-based spectral linear stochastic estimation (SLSE), rooting from the predicted planar flow. Results show that the CTA-Swin-UNet outperforms the baseline models (LSTM, FNO and traditional Swin-UNet) in both single-step prediction and autoregressive rollouts, indicating the effectiveness of introducing the CTA module into the Swin-UNet architecture. At the same temporal interval, the CTA-Swin-UNet remains stable for approximately 150 rollout steps, while the baseline models fail within 20 to 50 rollout steps. After introducing the MTFC strategy, a longer horizon upto 300 steps is achieved. Using the resolvent-based SLSE reconstruction further recovers the 3D flow structures and energy spectral distributions from the predicted planar inputs, which demonstrates that the proposed framework provides an effective and computationally efficient approach for long-horizon autoregressive prediction of 3D wall-bounded turbulence. |
