Foundation Models Accelerate Crash Safety Design Workflow

Researchers have developed a novel workflow for crash safety design that utilizes foundation models to accelerate the process. This system integrates a surrogate model trained on CAE simulations to predict pedestrian injury metrics, an evolutionary search algorithm for design exploration, a geometry generator, and a natural language interface orchestrated by an LLM. The workflow significantly reduces evaluation time from hours to seconds per simulation, enabling the discovery of numerous safety-compliant design alternatives in a fraction of the time required by conventional methods. AI
