arXiv:2605. 05540v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Fast surrogate modeling for high-dimensional physical dynamics requires more than low short-term error: useful models must roll out efficiently while preserving the statistical structure of long trajectories.

Many nonlinear physical systems exhibit an initial transient phase in which perturbations grow before nonlinear interactions lead to a statistically steady state. While this saturated regime is of primary interest, direct numerical simulations must resolve the full transient dynamics before reaching it, incurring significant computational cost.
arXiv:2507. 22082v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Direct numerical simulation (DNS) accurately resolves all spatio-temporal scales of wall-bounded turbulence but becomes prohibitively expensive as the Reynolds number increases.

SHIFT‑Truck is the first high‑fidelity aerodynamics dataset and benchmark specifically for pickup trucks, comprising 1,000 Spalart‑Allmaras delayed detached‑eddy simulations of a reference truck geometry morphed across 17 shape parameters. Each simulation uses a ~100‑million‑cell mesh at a Reynolds number of 1.4×10⁷ and provides time‑averaged surface pressure, wall shear stress, volumetric pressure, and velocity data, verified by grid refinement, repeated runs, and wind‑tunnel measurements. The benchmark defines geometry‑grouped splits and evaluates four neural surrogates—DoMINO, GeoTransolver, AB‑UPT, and SMART—on surface and volume tracks, while also introducing controlled distribution shifts in operating point, surface discretization, and vehicle archetype to test generalization.

This study introduces the first controlled benchmark of generative models for weather data assimilation using real station observations from 11,849 NOAA MADIS stations across the U.S. It evaluates key design choices—diffusion vs. flow matching, pixel vs. latent-space formulations, and inference-time conditioning strategies—against a classical 3D-Var baseline. The benchmark finds that learned generative priors and full-gradient guidance improve RMSE over ERA5, while other design variations offer minimal benefit, especially under sparse observation conditions.
