Quantum and classical approaches to the optimization of highway platooning: the two-vehicle matching problem
Chinonso Onah, Agneev Guin, Carsten Othmer +2
Aerodynamic drag reduction on highways through vehicle platooning is a well-known concept, but it has not yet seen systematic uptake, arguably because of significant technological…
PMRT: A Training Recipe for Fast, 3D High-Resolution Aerodynamic Prediction
Sam Jacob Jacob, Markus Mrosek, Carsten Othmer +1
The aerodynamic optimization of cars requires close collaboration between aerodynamicists and stylists, while slow, expensive simulations remain a bottleneck. Surrogate models have…
QUEST: QUantum-Enhanced Shared Transportation
Chinonso Onah, Neel Miscasci, Carsten Othmer +1
We introduce ``Windbreaking-as-a-Service'' (WaaS) as an innovative approach to shared transportation in which larger ``windbreaker'' vehicles provide aerodynamic shelter for ``wind…
Benchmarking Convolutional Neural Network and Graph Neural Network based Surrogate Models on a Real-World Car External Aerodynamics Dataset
Sam Jacob Jacob, Markus Mrosek, Carsten Othmer +1
Aerodynamic optimization is crucial for developing eco-friendly, aerodynamic, and stylish cars, which requires close collaboration between aerodynamicists and stylists, a collabora…
