As a _sneak preview_, in the next chapters we'll show:
- How to train networks to infer fluid flow solutions around shapes like airfoils in one go, i.e., without needing a simulator.
- How to train networks to infer fluid flows around shapes like airfoils in one go, i.e., a _surrogate model_ that replaces a traditional numerical simulation.
- We'll show how to use model equations as residual to train networks that represent solutions, and how to improve upon this behavior by using differentiable simulations.
- We'll show how to use model equations as residual to train networks that represent solutions, and how to improve upon these residual constraints by using _differentiable simulations_.
- Even more tightly coupling a full _rough_ simulator for control problems is another topic. E.g., we'll demonstrate how to circumvent the convergence problems of standard reinforcement learning techniques by leveraging simulators in the training loop.
- How to more tightly interact with a full simulator for _control problems_. E.g., we'll demonstrate how to circumvent the convergence problems of standard reinforcement learning techniques by leveraging simulators in the training loop.
