Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If CFD simulation data is stored in traditional formats, then data completeness is maintained, but data file size becomes large and processing costs increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata completenessVSAvoiddata file size
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a compact representation (copy) of CFD data using machine learning models. Instead of storing complete raw CFD simulation data, the system trains a neural network model on the original data and stores only the model parameters and uniform sampling coordinates. This compact copy can reconstruct the original data with minimal loss, dramatically reducing storage requirements while maintaining data completeness for analysis purposes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Quantity of substance

If CFD data is compressed using traditional methods, then data size is reduced, but data accuracy and completeness are lost

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata sizeVSAvoiddata accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical compression algorithms with a machine learning-based compression system. Instead of using lossy compression algorithms that discard data, the system uses a neural network model that learns the underlying patterns and relationships in CFD data. The model can reconstruct data at query points with high accuracy by leveraging learned physical relationships, maintaining data integrity while achieving compression.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Adaptability or versatility

If CFD simulation results are shared with non-CFD personnel, then accessibility is improved, but specialized software requirements create barriers

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata accessibilityVSAvoidsoftware requirements
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a machine learning model as an intermediary between CFD simulation data and end users. The model acts as a translator that converts complex CFD data into a format accessible through simple coordinate queries. Non-CFD personnel can query the model using basic spatial coordinates without needing specialized CFD software or expertise, while the model handles the complex data reconstruction internally.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

4Stability of the object's composition

If uniform spatial sampling is used for training, then data distribution is improved, but training data requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata distributionVSAvoidtraining data volume
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies uniform spatial sampling selectively at key locations rather than uniformly across the entire domain. The system identifies important regions and samples uniformly within those regions while using fewer samples in less critical areas. This partial application of uniform sampling maintains data distribution stability where needed while reducing overall training data requirements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, an electronic device, and a computer program product for determining computational fluid dynamics (CFD) data. The method includes acquiring a spatial coordinate set associated with a target object. The method further includes determining a location coded set associated with the spatial coordinate set. The method further includes determining CFD data associated with the target object by using a machine learning model based on the location coded set, wherein a sample spatial coordinate set associated with training of the machine learning model includes a plurality of sample spatial coordinate subsets acquired through uniform spatial sampling. In this way, the cost of acquiring CFD data can be reduced and the speed of acquiring the CFD data can be improved.
