MSBAI Delivers Transformative AI-Driven Hypersonic Aerothermodynamics Capabilities to USAF

Autonomous Simulation System for Hypersonic Vehicle Design 

Bringing #CFD to the unwashed masses. Guru is an #artificialintelligence powered system that simplifies the process of setting up and running computational fluid dynamics (#CFD) simulations for hypersonic vehicle design. With Guru, users can interactively set up simulations, batch-run multiple scenarios, and automate post-processing and data extraction. The system interprets user requests, builds computational meshes, sets boundary conditions, and selects solver settings, freeing up users to focus on design and analysis goals. Guru's advanced features include solution-adaptive mesh refinement, ensuring simulations capture relevant physics. By automating manual tasks, Guru dramatically reduces setup time, making it an innovative game-changer for high-performance computing and design analysis.

Here are the key points I gathered from the video description:

  • - The video demonstrates Guru, an AI-powered computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation setup and execution system for hypersonic vehicles.
  • - Guru can be accessed and used through a variety of interfaces - laptop, tablet, phone, or even VR headset. Users can interact with Guru through typing, voice, pointing/clicking, and gestures.
  • - Guru allows users to select vehicle models from a pre-populated database, upload their own geometries, or create new ones. Guru then automatically handles the mesh generation, setting boundary conditions, and selecting solver settings to ensure solution convergence.
  • - Guru follows known best practices and established procedures, automating the process of setting up, submitting, and post-processing CFD simulations. This frees up the user to focus on the design and analysis goals.
  • - Users can set up a single simulation interactively, or request Guru to generate an entire aerodynamic database of simulations by providing a matrix of conditions in a text or CSV file.
  • - Guru performs adaptive mesh refinement to ensure the simulations capture the relevant physics accurately.
  • - Guru automates the entire workflow from simulation setup to post-processing, drastically reducing the time and effort required compared to manual processes, which can take hours.
  • - The video suggests Guru represents the future of design analysis and high-performance computing, serving as a significant productivity enhancement for organizations.

 GURU Autonomously sets up and runs high speed airplane design simulations for the Air Force, Video:  https://youtu.be/X_4X9lKSpJ4MSBAI today announced the successful completion of its AFWERX Phase 2 SBIR contract, titled GURU Owns the Modeling and Simulation Tech Stack. This milestone represents a significant advancement in the U.S. Air Force's digital engineering capabilities for next-generation supersonic and hypersonic aircraft development, unlocking the power of Air Force High Performance Computing (HPC).

Awarded under the 2021 Air Force 'Digital Engineering Pitch Day' initiative, MSBAI has delivered a groundbreaking autonomous solution that can set up Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations for high-speed aircraft in a matter of minutes - a process that traditionally takes hours to complete. This transformative capability, embodied in MSBAI's GURU platform, responds to the U.S. Department of Defense's imperative to accelerate AI adoption, as recently outlined by Dr. William W. Streilein, Chief Technology Officer for DoD's Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office (CDAO).

The 'Digital Engineering Pitch Day' initiative was launched to identify and accelerate the development of novel digital engineering capabilities that could benefit the U.S. Air Force. AFWERX, the innovation arm of the Department of the Air Force and powered by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), sought innovative solutions that could advance the Air Force's digital transformation and improve their ability to rapidly design, develop, test, and field new systems. "Digital engineering isn't an option … it's essential. It's faster, it's cheaper, it's better," said Air Force Secretary Barbara Barrett.

"The digital engineering pitch day was a critical step in accelerating the Air Force's digital transformation. By tapping into the innovative capabilities of non-traditional defense companies, we were able to identify solutions that can truly revolutionize how we design, develop and field new systems," said J. Kyle Hurst, Chief of the Department of the Air Force Digital Transformation office (DAF DTO).

The successful delivery of GURU, now operational at the Air Force Research Laboratory's DoD Supercomputing Resource Center (AFRL DSRC), marks a critical milestone in the Air Force's digital transformation efforts. Vince 'Swath' Pecoraro, Lead Program Manager at DTO, commended the MSBAI team, stating, "Great leadership is in place, and the GURU product continues to impress. The DAF Digital Transformation Office will continue to support!"

With this successful contract completion, MSBAI is poised to further expand its transformative AI-driven capabilities to support the U.S. Air Force and American high speed aircraft designers in their pursuit of next-generation air superiority.
