pyforce-1.0.0: Python Framework for data-driven model Order Reduction of multi-physiCs problEms

We develop two parametric data-driven reduced models: a physics-informed neural network (PINN) and a non-intrusive tensorial reduced-order model (TROM), and apply both approaches to the parametrized one-dimensional shallow-water dam-break problem. Both reduced models do not require time integration and learn a direct solution map from space, time, and dam-break parameters to the physical state. We present a detailed comparison for out-of-sample and extrapolated parameter values. In addition, we demonstrate that it is essential to introduce shock-aware collocation to improve the robustness of the PINN model.

Physics-informed diffusion models typically enforce PDE constraints only on final outputs, leaving intermediate representations unconstrained and prone to shortcut learning under shifted boundary conditions. We introduce REPA-P, a teacher-free, architecture-agnostic framework that aligns intermediate features with physical states using first-principles residuals. REPA-P attaches lightweight $1{\times}1$ projection heads to selected layers, decodes hidden activations into physical quantities, and applies PDE residual losses during training. These heads are discarded at inference, introducing zero overhead. Across four PDE tasks, including Darcy flow, topology optimization, electrostatic potential, and turbulent channel flow, REPA-P accelerates convergence by up to $2{\times}$, reduces physics residuals by up to $66.4\%$, and improves out-of-distribution robustness by up to $49.3\%$, with consistent gains on both U-Net and Diffusion Transformer backbones. Ablations show that supervising a small set of intermediate layers captures most benefits and complements output-level physics losses. Code is available at https://github.com/Hxxxz0/REPA-P.

Large language models can reduce the manual effort required to set up finite element simulations, but they introduce reliability risks when generated solver code lies on the critical path. We present a constrained natural-language interface for multi-physics finite element analysis in which the LLM is limited to front-end tasks: parsing prompts into structured JSON, generating Gmsh code only for non-catalog geometries, and using retry feedback for those stages. It never writes FEniCS solver templates, derives weak forms, or writes the numerical solver core. A deterministic dispatcher maps the validated specification to five human-written FEniCS/UFL templates: linear elasticity, hyperelasticity, elastoplasticity, thermo-mechanical coupling, and phase-field fracture. We validate this deterministic template layer against analytical solutions and published 2D/3D benchmarks. Smooth cases reach sub-percent agreement on adequate meshes, while harder nonlinear cases reach the 2-5 percent range. We also evaluate the LLM-facing front end directly. In a 15-prompt parser benchmark, first-pass valid parses were obtained for 9 cases, and all remaining cases were repaired after retry, giving a final valid parse rate of 100.0 percent, 100.0 percent problem-class accuracy, and 97.1 percent field-extraction accuracy. In a 10-case custom-geometry benchmark routed through the real LLM-to-Gmsh path, first-pass and final success were both 90.0 percent, with one unrecovered invalid-geometry failure. These results show that the parser and constrained prompt/validation design are effective on these benchmarks. As an end-to-end demonstration, the system generates and analyzes a 3D elastoplastic L-bracket with a fillet and bolt hole from one natural-language prompt. The contribution is a measured architecture for natural-language-driven variational simulation, not open-ended autonomous code generation.
