# Model Overview
|
| 9 |
+
|
| 10 |
+
## Description
|
| 11 |
+
|
| 12 |
+
XMeshGraphNet-DrivAerML is a pre-trained AI model for automotive external aerodynamics. This model has been trained using the [DrivAerML dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/neashton/drivaerml), that are LES simulations of road-cars of varying geometries. This pre-trained model works by taking the input from a single DrivAerML STL (Standard Tessellation Language) geometry and evaluates a solution on the surface of the vehicle.
|
| 13 |
+
|
| 14 |
+
This model is ready for commercial use.

## Model Architecture
|
| 40 |
+
|
| 41 |
+
**Architecture Type:** Graph Neural Network with message passing blocks,
|
| 42 |
+
fully connected blocks, and partitioning with halo. <br>
|
| 43 |
+
|
| 44 |
+
**Network Architecture:** The X-MeshGraphNet (X-MGN) is a scalable,
|
| 45 |
+
multi-scale extension of MeshGraphNet designed for fast physics simulation.
|
| 46 |
+
Its architecture features three technical pillars: Custom Graph Construction
|
| 47 |
+
directly from CAD files (e.g., STLs) via point clouds and $k$-nearest neighbors
|
| 48 |
+
(KNN); Scalable Partitioning of large graphs with halo regions, where gradient
|
| 49 |
+
aggregation ensures the training is mathematically equivalent to processing
|
| 50 |
+
the full graph; and a Multi-Scale approach that refines graph resolution to
|
| 51 |
+
efficiently capture long-range interactions.<br>
|
| 52 |
+
|
| 53 |
+
** Number of model parameters: 12M

| 54 |
+
|
| 55 |

# Training and Evaluation Datasets:
|
| 94 |
+
|
| 95 |
+
The DrivAerML dataset is used for training and evaluation, which is a publicly available, high-fidelity dataset comprising aerodynamic data for 500 parametrically morphed variants of the DrivAer notchback vehicle. The dataset was generated using hybrid RANSLES (HRLES), a scale-resolving CFD method, which provides time-averaged quantities for each variant. The available data includes surface pressure, wall shear stress, and flow-field quantities, provided in formats compatible with mesh-based analysis (.vtp for surface data and .vtu for flow-field data).10% of the samples are used as the test set, with 20% of the test set consisting of out-of-distribution samples based on drag coefficients. These samples represent extreme cases with the lowest and highest drag coefficients in the entire dataset, which remain unseen by the model during training.
