How Does Distribution Shift Shape Pretraining Gains in Neural PDE Surrogates?
Pretraining a neural PDE surrogate can reduce the amount of new CFD data needed when geometry or modeled physics changes. However, it remains unclear how different components of distribution shift affect this benefit. We pretrain a surrogate on 254,909 RANS solutions from one airfoil family and fine-tune it on a new fa...
