用AI代理协作优化机翼设计,提升效率与质量。
Toward Autonomous Engineering Design: A Knowledge-Guided Multi-Agent Framework
- 三类专用AI代理协同:知识构建、设计生成、系统评审
- 通过反馈循环实现设计迭代,最终使升阻比最大化
- 适合需要跨领域协作的工程自动化场景
工程设计常需多领域专家协作,过程复杂且耗时。为解决此问题,本文提出一种基于知识引导的多智能体框架,将设计与评审流程结构化。以4位数NACA机翼气动优化为例,框架包含三类智能体:图谱建构者(利用大语言模型从文献构建两个领域知识图谱)、设计工程师(基于知识图谱和计算工具生成候选机翼)、系统工程师(根据技术要求评估并反馈)。系统工程师结合自身知识图谱提供定性与定量反馈,形成迭代闭环,直至人类管理者确认设计。最终设计在性能指标如升阻比上实现优化。该方法显著提升了设计过程的效率、一致性与质量。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The engineering design process often demands expertise from multiple domains, leading to complex collaborations and iterative refinements. Traditional methods can be resource-intensive and prone to inefficiencies. To address this, we formalize the engineering design process through a multi-agent AI framework that integrates structured design and review loops. The framework introduces specialized knowledge-driven agents that collaborate to generate and refine design candidates. As an exemplar, we demonstrate its application to the aerodynamic optimization of 4-digit NACA airfoils. The framework consists of three key AI agents: a Graph Ontologist, a Design Engineer, and a Systems Engineer. The Graph Ontologist employs a Large Language Model (LLM) to construct two domain-specific knowledge graphs from airfoil design literature. The Systems Engineer, informed by a human manager, formulates technical requirements that guide design generation and evaluation. The Design Engineer leverages the design knowledge graph and computational tools to propose candidate airfoils meeting these requirements. The Systems Engineer reviews and provides feedback both qualitative and quantitative using its own knowledge graph, forming an iterative feedback loop until a design is validated by the manager. The final design is then optimized to maximize performance metrics such as the lift-to-drag ratio. Overall, this work demonstrates how collaborative AI agents equipped with structured knowledge representations can enhance efficiency, consistency, and quality in the engineering design process.
