MeshGraphNet-Transformer: Scalable Mesh-based Learned Simulation for Solid Mechanics

MeshGraphNet-Transformer (MGN‑T) is a new architecture that fuses Transformers’ global modeling with MeshGraphNets’ geometric inductive bias, keeping a mesh‑based graph representation. It replaces iterative message passing with a physics‑attention Transformer that updates all nodal states simultaneously, enabling efficient learning on high‑resolution meshes with diverse geometries, topologies, and boundary conditions. MGN‑T accurately models impact dynamics, self‑contact, plasticity, and multivariate outputs, outperforming state‑of‑the‑art methods on classical benchmarks while using far fewer parameters.
