Surrogate Assisted Pedestrian Protection Design via a Foundation Model Orchestrated Workflow

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 17577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI-driven engineering workflows face particular challenges in crash safety design: unlike aerodynamics, crash events involve highly nonlinear contact dynamics, material nonlinearity, and discrete state transitions that are difficult to capture with data-driven surrogate models.
