• Abstract summary: We present a deep learning framework for 3D flow field prediction applied to blades of aircraft engine turbines and compressors. We view any 3D field as a function from coordinates modeled by a neural network we call the backbone-net. It can accurately render important flow characteristics such as boundary layers, wakes and shock waves.

• Abstract: Despite the plethora of deep learning frameworks for flow field prediction, most of them deal with flow fields on regular domains, and although the best ones can cope with irregular domains, they mostly rely on graph networks, so that real industrial applications remain currently elusive. We present a deep learning framework for 3D flow field prediction applied to blades of aircraft engine turbines and compressors. Crucially, we view any 3D field as a function from coordinates that is modeled by a neural network we call the backbone-net. It inherits the property of coordinate-based MLPs, namely the discretization-agnostic representation of flow fields in domains of arbitrary topology at infinite resolution. First, we demonstrate the performance of the backbone-net solo in regressing 3D steady simulations of single blade rows in various flow regimes: it can accurately render important flow characteristics such as boundary layers, wakes and shock waves. Second, we introduce a hyper-net that maps the surface mesh of a blade to the parameters of the backbone-net. By doing so, the flow solution can be directly predicted from the blade geometry, irrespective of its parameterization. Together, backbone-net and hyper-net form a highly-accurate memory-efficient data-driven proxy to CFD solvers with good generalization on unseen geometries.

  We present a scheme to directly generate manifold, polygonal meshes of complex connectivity as the output of a neural network. Our key innovation is to define a continuous latent connectivity space at each mesh, which implies the discrete mesh. In applications, this approach not only yields high-quality outputs from generative models, but also enables directly learning challenging geometry processing tasks such as mesh repair.

  Traditional 3D networks mainly focus on local geometric details and ignore the topological structure between local geometries. We propose a novel Priors Distillation (RPD) method to extract priors from the well-trained transformers on massive images. Experiments on the PointDA-10 and the Sim-to-Real datasets verify that the proposed method consistently achieves the state-of-the-art performance of UDA for point cloud classification.
