Researchers have developed CoPiT, a conditional Position-induced Transformer designed for aerodynamic field prediction on unstructured meshes. This model improves upon existing neural operators by explicitly incorporating global parameters like freestream state and design variables through feature-wise linear modulation (FiLM). Evaluations on airfoil and blended-wing-body surfaces demonstrated CoPiT's effectiveness, showing significant reductions in surface and volume losses compared to other methods and achieving the lowest overall normalized test mean squared error on one dataset.
