Where surrogates are used

How surrogates are used across industries and in day-to-day engineering, with interactive examples from aerospace, automotive and electronics.

• Industries and why now: Engineering runs on simulation; data, compute and open models make surrogates practical today.
• Surrogates in practice: Recent industrial releases and research, domain by domain: where surrogates are needed now and what they do there.
• Design use: Millisecond answers turn design studies, optimisation and real-time tools into routine work.
• Aerospace: Aerodynamic loads, performance and thermal design across the flight envelope, explored before committing to tunnel and flight tests.
• Automotive: Drag, lift, cooling, thermal and aeroacoustic design of vehicles, evaluated in seconds instead of overnight CFD.
• Electronics: Temperature fields in chips, packages and boards, fast enough for floorplanning and run-time power management.
