AeroJEPA: Learning Semantic Latent Representations for Scalable 3D Aerodynamic Field Modeling

High-fidelity CFD is essential for aerodynamic design, but repeated simulations are computationally expensive, motivating surrogate models for rapid evaluation across geometries and operating conditions. Most existing surrogates are designed for direct field regression, requiring the evaluation of millions of field points even when only an aerodynamic quantity or a localized region is needed, while their internal representations are not intended for direct use in downstream tasks. We introduce AeroJEPA, a framework inspired by joint-embedding predictive architectures that represents the problem in two distinct latent spaces: context tokens encode geometry, while predicted tokens encode the aerodynamic state. Both representations remain directly accessible for downstream tasks, such as linear readouts of design variables and aerodynamic quantities without decoding and integrating the full field. When spatial detail is needed, a continuous implicit decoder evaluates the field only at the requested coordinates while reusing the encoded geometry. We evaluate AeroJEPA on HiLiftAeroML, with multi-million-point fields, and SuperWing, which spans a broad family of transonic wings. Compared with state-of-the-art direct-regression surrogates, AeroJEPA trades peak full-field accuracy for compact, reusable representations. In our selective-decoding experiment, however, AeroJEPA substantially outperforms the evaluated direct-regression surrogates while avoiding predictions over the remainder of the aircraft. The learned representations further support controlled interpolation, concept-vector arithmetic, and preliminary constrained latent-space optimization. These results show how predictive representations can support aerodynamic analysis with or without full-field reconstruction.

Agentic Exploration of PDE Spaces using Latent Foundation Models for Parameterized Simulations

Flow physics and more broadly physical phenomena governed by partial differential equations (PDEs), are inherently continuous, high-dimensional and often chaotic in nature. Traditionally, researchers have explored these rich spatiotemporal PDE solution spaces using laboratory experiments and/or computationally expensive numerical simulations. This severely limits automated and large-scale exploration, unlike domains such as drug discovery or materials science, where discrete, tokenizable representations naturally interface with large language models. We address this by coupling multi-agent LLMs with latent foundation models (LFMs), a generative model over parametrised simulations, that learns explicit, compact and disentangled latent representations of flow fields, enabling continuous exploration across governing PDE parameters and boundary conditions. The LFM serves as an on-demand surrogate simulator, allowing agents to query arbitrary parameter configurations at negligible cost. A hierarchical agent architecture orchestrates exploration through a closed loop of hypothesis, experimentation, analysis and verification, with a tool-modular interface requiring no user support. Applied to flow past tandem cylinders at Re = 500, the framework autonomously evaluates over 1,600 parameter-location pairs and discovers divergent scaling laws: a regime-dependent two-mode structure for minimum displacement thickness and a robust linear scaling for maximum momentum thickness, with both landscapes exhibiting a dual-extrema structure that emerges at the near-wake to co-shedding regime transition. The coupling of the learned physical representations with agentic reasoning establishes a general paradigm for automated scientific discovery in PDE-governed systems.
