Platon seminar (9/04/2025) – Benjamin Sanderse

Benjamin Sanderse, researcher at CWI, Amsterdam. Title: Energy-Consistent Generative Models for Fluid Flow Simulation Abstract: Despite the enormous potential of generative modelling, its application to replace expensive physics simulations is still limited. One outstanding challenge in achieving efficient inference is to maintain physical consistency of the generated results. In this…

Platon seminar (28/09/2023) – Hanane Khatouri

Hanane Khatouri, Research Engineer, Platon Team Title: Adaptive full-field multi-fidelity surrogate-based optimization dedicated to turbomachinery Abstract: We are interested in the reduction of optimization costs during aircraft engine design where the quantities of interest are derived from a 2D or 3D solution physics-based surrogate models. The cost associated with the…
