Rolls-Royce and Databricks optimize cGAN model training for aerospace design space exploration using Mosaic AI

Rolls-Royce needed to enhance design space exploration beyond the limitations of parametric models and traditional geometry modeling, while managing multi-objective constraints where requirements such as weight reduction and efficiency improvement conflicted with each other.

How it works
Common implementation structure
How this type of workflow is generally built, generalized across documented cases — not tied to any one vendor's stack. Click any stage to read what happens there. Specific products that implement these stages appear in “Tools commonly seen” below.
Stage 1 · Design condition specified
Legacy simulation data drives identification and assessment of innovative design concepts that must satisfy a specified design condition.
Tools used
Databricks Data Intelligence PlatformDatabricks Mosaic AIAutoMLManaged MLflowMLflowUnity CatalogRay
Outcome

The collaboration demonstrated faster time-to-model via AutoML and Managed MLflow, reduced total cost of ownership through a unified lakehouse architecture, improved model accuracy through scalable hyperparameter studies, and a governance framework through Unity Catalog for compliance-centric aerospace data.
