CADmium: Fine-Tuning Code Language Models for Text-Driven Sequential CAD Design

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the digital construction of 2D and 3D objects, and is central to a wide range of engineering and manufacturing applications like automobile and aviation. Despite its importance, CAD modeling remains largely a time-intensive, manual task. Recent works have attempted to automate this process with small transformer-based models and handcrafted CAD sequence representations. However, there has been little effort to leverage the potential of large language models (LLMs) for sequential CAD design. In this work, we introduce a new large-scale dataset of more than 170k CAD models annotated with high-quality, human-like descriptions generated with our pipeline based on GPT-4.1. Using this dataset, we fine-tune powerful code-LLMs to generate CAD sequences represented in a JSON-based format from natural language descriptions, demonstrating the viability and effectiveness of this approach for text-conditioned CAD generation. Because simple metrics often fail to reflect the quality of generated objects, we introduce geometric and topological metrics based on sphericity, mean curvature, and Euler characteristic to provide richer structural insights. Our experiments and ablation studies on both synthetic and human-annotated data demonstrate that CADmium is able to automate CAD design, drastically speeding up the design of new objects. The dataset, code, and fine-tuned models are available online.

NSPOD: Accelerating Krylov solvers via DeepONet-learned POD subspaces

The convergence of Krylov-based linear iterative solvers applied to parametric partial differential equations (PDEs) is often highly sensitive to the domain, its discretization, the location/values of the applied Dirichlet/Neumann boundary conditions, body forces and material properties, among others. We have previously introduced hybridization of classical linear iterative solvers with neural operators for specific geometries, but they tend to not perform well on geometries not previously seen during training. We partially addressed this challenge by introducing the deep operator network Geo-DeepONet and hybridizing it with Krylov-based iterative linear solvers, which, despite learning effectively across arbitrary unstructured meshes without requiring retraining, led to only modest reductions in iterations compared to state-of-the-art preconditioners. In this study we introduce Neural Subspace Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (NSPOD), a multigrid-like deep operator network-based preconditioner which can dramatically reduce the number of iterations needed for convergence in Krylov-based linear iterative solvers, even when compared to state-of-the-art methods such as algebraic multigrid preconditioners. We demonstrate its efficiency via numerical experiments on a linearized version of solid mechanics PDEs applied to unstructured domains obtained from complex CAD geometries. We expect that the findings in this study lead to more efficient hybrid preconditioners that can match, or possibly even surpass, the convergence properties of the current gold standard preconditioning methods for solid mechanics PDEs.

A Thermal Machine Learning Solver For Chip Simulation

Thermal analysis provides deeper insights into electronic chips behavior under different temperature scenarios and enables faster design exploration. However, obtaining detailed and accurate thermal profile on chip is very time-consuming using FEM or CFD. Therefore, there is an urgent need for speeding up the on-chip thermal solution to address various system scenarios. In this paper, we propose a thermal machine-learning (ML) solver to speed-up thermal simulations of chips. The thermal ML-Solver is an extension of the recent novel approach, CoAEMLSim (Composable Autoencoder Machine Learning Simulator) with modifications to the solution algorithm to handle constant and distributed HTC. The proposed method is validated against commercial solvers, such as Ansys MAPDL, as well as a latest ML baseline, UNet, under different scenarios to demonstrate its enhanced accuracy, scalability, and generalizability.

An unsupervised learning approach to solving heat equations on chip based on Auto Encoder and Image Gradient

Solving heat transfer equations on chip becomes very critical in the upcoming 5G and AI chip-package-systems. However, batches of simulations have to be performed for data driven supervised machine learning models. Data driven methods are data hungry, to address this, Physics Informed Neural Networks (PINN) have been proposed. However, vanilla PINN models solve one fixed heat equation at a time, so the models have to be retrained for heat equations with different source terms. Additionally, issues related to multi-objective optimization have to be resolved while using PINN to minimize the PDE residual, satisfy boundary conditions and fit the observed data etc. Therefore, this paper investigates an unsupervised learning approach for solving heat transfer equations on chip without using solution data and generalizing the trained network for predicting solutions for heat equations with unseen source terms. Specifically, a hybrid framework of Auto Encoder (AE) and Image Gradient (IG) based network is designed. The AE is used to encode different source terms of the heat equations. The IG based network implements a second order central difference algorithm for structured grids and minimizes the PDE residual. The effectiveness of the designed network is evaluated by solving heat equations for various use cases. It is proved that with limited number of source terms to train the AE network, the framework can not only solve the given heat transfer problems with a single training process, but also make reasonable predictions for unseen cases (heat equations with new source terms) without retraining.

DiscretizationNet: A Machine-Learning based solver for Navier-Stokes Equations using Finite Volume Discretization

Over the last few decades, existing Partial Differential Equation (PDE) solvers have demonstrated a tremendous success in solving complex, non-linear PDEs. Although accurate, these PDE solvers are computationally costly. With the advances in Machine Learning (ML) technologies, there has been a significant increase in the research of using ML to solve PDEs. The goal of this work is to develop an ML-based PDE solver, that couples important characteristics of existing PDE solvers with ML technologies. The two solver characteristics that have been adopted in this work are: 1) the use of discretization-based schemes to approximate spatio-temporal partial derivatives and 2) the use of iterative algorithms to solve linearized PDEs in their discrete form. In the presence of highly non-linear, coupled PDE solutions, these strategies can be very important in achieving good accuracy, better stability and faster convergence. Our ML-solver, DiscretizationNet, employs a generative CNN-based encoder-decoder model with PDE variables as both input and output features. During training, the discretization schemes are implemented inside the computational graph to enable faster GPU computation of PDE residuals, which are used to update network weights that result into converged solutions. A novel iterative capability is implemented during the network training to improve the stability and convergence of the ML-solver. The ML-Solver is demonstrated to solve the steady, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in 3-D for several cases such as, lid-driven cavity, flow past a cylinder and conjugate heat transfer.
