## 🏗️ System Overview

AtomizerField is a **two-phase system** that transforms FEA results into neural network predictions:

**Why HDF5?**
- ✅ Efficient storage (compressed)
- ✅ Fast random access
- ✅ Handles large arrays (millions of values)
- ✅ Industry standard for scientific data
- ✅ Direct NumPy/PyTorch integration

### Parser Code Flow

```python
# neural_field_parser.py - Main Parser Class

class NastranToNeuralFieldParser:
    def __init__(self, case_directory):
        # Find BDF and OP2 files
        # Initialize pyNastran readers

    def parse_all(self):
        # 1. Read BDF (input deck)
        self.bdf.read_bdf(bdf_file)

        # 2. Read OP2 (results)
        self.op2.read_op2(op2_file)

        # 3. Extract data
        self.extract_metadata()      # Analysis info, units
        self.extract_mesh()          # Nodes, elements, connectivity
        self.extract_materials()     # Material properties
        self.extract_boundary_conditions()  # SPCs, MPCs
        self.extract_loads()         # Forces, pressures, gravity
        self.extract_results()       # COMPLETE FIELDS (key!)

        # 4. Save
        self.save_data()             # JSON + HDF5
```

**Key Innovation in `extract_results()`:**
```python
def extract_results(self):
    # Traditional FEA post-processing:
    # max_stress = np.max(stress_data)  ← LOSES SPATIAL INFO!

    # AtomizerField approach:
    # Store COMPLETE field at EVERY node/element
    results["displacement"] = {
        "data": disp_data.tolist(),  # ALL 15,432 nodes × 6 DOF
        "shape": [15432, 6],
        "max_translation": float(np.max(magnitudes))  # Also store max
    }

    # This enables neural network to learn spatial patterns!
```

```python
class FEAMeshDataset(Dataset):
    def _build_graph(self, metadata, node_coords, displacement, stress):
        # 1. Build node features
        x = torch.cat([
            node_coords,        # [N, 3] - position
            bc_mask,            # [N, 6] - which DOFs constrained
            load_features       # [N, 3] - applied forces
        ], dim=-1)              # → [N, 12]

        # 2. Build edges from element connectivity
        for element in elements:
            nodes = element['nodes']
            # Fully connect nodes within element
            for i, j in pairs(nodes):
                edge_index.append([i, j])
                edge_attr.append(material_props)

        # 3. Create PyTorch Geometric Data object
        data = Data(
            x=x,                      # Node features
            edge_index=edge_index,    # Connectivity
            edge_attr=edge_attr,      # Material properties
            y_displacement=displacement,  # Target (ground truth)
            y_stress=stress          # Target (ground truth)
        )

        return data
```

### Physics-Informed Loss

**Standard Neural Network:**
```python
loss = MSE(prediction, ground_truth)
# Only learns to match training data
```

**AtomizerField (Physics-Informed):**
```python
loss = λ_data × MSE(prediction, ground_truth)
     + λ_eq × EquilibriumViolation(stress)      # ∇·σ + f = 0
     + λ_const × ConstitutiveLawError(stress, strain)  # σ = C:ε
     + λ_bc × BoundaryConditionError(disp, BCs)  # u = 0 at fixed nodes

# Learns physics, not just patterns!
```

**Benefits:**
- Faster convergence
- Better generalization to unseen cases
- Physically plausible predictions
- Needs less training data

### Training Pipeline

**`train.py` workflow:**

```python
# 1. Load data
train_loader = create_dataloaders(train_cases, val_cases)

# 2. Create model
model = AtomizerFieldModel(
    node_feature_dim=12,
    hidden_dim=128,
    num_layers=6
)

# 3. Training loop
for epoch in range(num_epochs):
    for batch in train_loader:
        # Forward pass
        predictions = model(batch)

        # Compute loss
        losses = criterion(predictions, targets)

        # Backward pass
        losses['total_loss'].backward()
        optimizer.step()

    # Validate
    val_metrics = validate(val_loader)

    # Save checkpoint if best
    if val_loss < best_val_loss:
        save_checkpoint('checkpoint_best.pt')

    # TensorBoard logging
    writer.add_scalar('Loss/train', train_loss, epoch)
```

**Outputs:**
```
runs/
├── checkpoint_best.pt         # Best model (lowest validation loss)
├── checkpoint_latest.pt       # Latest state (for resuming)
├── config.json                # Model configuration
└── tensorboard/               # Training logs
    └── events.out.tfevents...
```

### Inference (Prediction)

**`predict.py` workflow:**

```python
# 1. Load trained model
model = load_model('checkpoint_best.pt')

# 2. Load new case (mesh + BCs + loads, NO FEA solve!)
data = load_case('new_design')

# 3. Predict in milliseconds
predictions = model(data)  # ~15ms

# 4. Extract results
displacement = predictions['displacement']  # [N, 6]
stress = predictions['stress']              # [N, 6]
von_mises = predictions['von_mises']        # [N]

# 5. Get max values (like traditional FEA)
max_disp = np.max(np.linalg.norm(displacement[:, :3], axis=1))
max_stress = np.max(von_mises)

print(f"Max displacement: {max_disp:.6f} mm")
print(f"Max stress: {max_stress:.2f} MPa")
```

**Performance:**
- Traditional FEA: 2-3 hours
- AtomizerField: 15 milliseconds
- **Speedup: ~480,000×**

## 🎯 Key Innovations

### 1. Complete Field Learning (Not Scalars)

**Traditional Surrogate:**
```python
# Only learns one number per analysis
max_stress = neural_net(design_parameters)
```

**AtomizerField:**
```python
# Learns ENTIRE FIELD (45,000 values)
stress_field = neural_net(mesh_graph)
# Knows WHERE stress occurs, not just max value!
```

### 2. Graph Neural Networks (Respect Topology)

```
Why GNNs?
- FEA solves: K·u = f
- K depends on mesh connectivity
- GNN learns on mesh structure
- Messages propagate like forces!
```

### 3. Physics-Informed Training

```
Standard NN: "Make output match training data"
AtomizerField: "Match data AND obey physics laws"
Result: Better with less data!
```
