📰 AI is Changing Race Car Aerodynamics
The next competitive advantage in aerodynamics? Smarter workflows, not just faster computers.
Researchers, in collaboration with Dallara, have introduced GIST—an AI-powered surrogate model that enables near-instant aerodynamic predictions using data from high-fidelity CFD simulations.
Instead of replacing CFD, it helps engineers rapidly explore design concepts before validating them with traditional simulations, significantly reducing early design iteration time.
As AI and physics-based simulations continue to converge, hybrid workflows are becoming the future of automotive and motorsport aerodynamics.
