arXiv:2608. 13934v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate prediction of undrained shear strength (su) is crucial for geotechnical design, but is often hampered by substantial uncertainty in traditional empirical methods.

Abstract: High-consequence subsurface decisions often rely on sparse data that permit competing geological interpretations. Determining consistency of these...

The paper introduces a workflow that ranks competing geological interpretations by converting them into spatial priors and assessing their consistency with hydraulic‑head observations. Using a text‑to‑image model to generate 1600 geologic images per interpretation, a variational autoencoder encodes them, and a supervised inverse network maps head data into this latent space, producing log‑conductivity fields for flow simulation. The method is validated on a synthetic Johansen Formation benchmark and applied to two conceptual models of the Culebra Dolomite, yielding compatibility scores that align with independent evidence.

arXiv:2607. 16050v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pluvial (rainfall-driven) flooding accounts for 45% of National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) claims in the United States and is harder to predict than its riverine and coastal counterparts, with existing approaches limited to coarse resolution, regional domains, or computationally intensive process-based models unsuitable for daily continental-scale use.

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.
