Designing next-generation underwater vehicles means balancing hydrodynamic performance with packaging constraints. Traditional CFD is accurate—but too slow and expensive to explore the full design space. Teams settle for "good enough."
In this webinar, we show how Physics AI changes the game. Using SHIFT-Submarine, an AI surrogate trained on full-fidelity CFD, we'll show one rapidly evaluating several of design candidates — unlocking high-performance geometries that traditional workflows miss. We show how an AI model driven optimization can dramatically compress design cycle times across different submarine programs.
