ChannelFlow-Tools is an open‑source, configuration‑driven pipeline that generates machine‑learning‑ready datasets for three‑dimensional obstructed channel flows. It combines procedural obstacle geometry generation across six shape families, signed‑distance‑field voxelisation, lattice‑Boltzmann simulation, and packaging into ML‑ready tensors, all driven by reproducible configuration files. The pipeline is validated through mesh‑integrity audits, SDF representation checks, solver benchmarks, and data‑integrity audits, and it has been used to train surrogate models (3D U‑Net, FNO, U‑FNO) that learn geometry‑to‑flow mappings and exhibit physically interpretable behaviour on out‑of‑distribution splits.

arXiv:2604. 01349v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reservoir simulation workflows face a fundamental data asymmetry: input parameter fields (geostatistical permeability realizations, porosity distributions) are free to generate in arbitrary quantities, yet existing neural operator surrogates require large corpora of expensive labeled simulation trajectories and cannot exploit this unlabeled structure.

The paper introduces a correction framework that grounds a CFD-trained deep learning surrogate model for aerospace aerodynamics using wind‑tunnel pressure‑sensor (PSP) data. By training a correction network on spatially registered PSP measurements at two Mach numbers, the authors adjust the surrogate’s predictions without retraining its core parameters, achieving improved agreement with experimental pressure distributions—especially at the wing suction peak and shock location. The grounded surrogate matches measurements within 2.3–2.7% of the Cp range on unseen angles of attack and outperforms simple interpolation between measured states.

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.

The paper introduces LatentDDM, a neural operator framework that first pretrains on small subdomains and then adapts to new settings by training only a lightweight composition module. Experiments on steady Darcy flow and unsteady airfoil flow show that this approach reduces error by 36‑56% on larger domains and improves 20‑step rollouts, outperforming capacity‑matched full‑domain models. The study highlights co‑designed local pretraining and composition‑level transfer as a promising design principle for physical foundation models.
