Modulus Symbolic (Modulus Sym) provides pythonic APIs, algorithms and utilities to be used with Modulus core, to explicitly physics inform the model training. This includes symbolic APIs for PDEs, domain sampling and PDE-based residuals.
It also provides higher level abstraction to compose a training loop from specification of the geometry, PDEs and constraints like boundary conditions using simple symbolic APIs. Please refer to the Lid Driven cavity that illustrates the concept. Additional information can be found in the Modulus documentation.
Users of Modulus versions older than 23.05 can refer to the migration guide for updating to the latest version.
- Modulus (Beta): Open-source deep-learning framework for building, training, and fine-tuning deep learning models using state-of-the-art Physics-ML methods.
- Modulus Symbolic (Beta): Framework providing pythonic APIs, algorithms and utilities to be used with Modulus core to physics inform model training as well as higher level abstraction for domain experts.
- Earth-2 MIP (Beta): Python framework to enable climate researchers and scientists to explore and experiment with AI models for weather and climate.
The recommended method for installing the latest version of Modulus Symbolic is using PyPi:
pip install nvidia-modulus.symNote, the above method only works for x86/amd64 based architectures. For installing Modulus Sym on Arm based systems using pip, Install VTK from source as shown here and then install Modulus-Sym and other dependencies
pip install nvidia-modulus.sym --no-deps
pip install "hydra-core>=1.2.0" "termcolor>=2.1.1" "chaospy>=4.3.7" "Cython==0.29.28" "numpy-stl==2.16.3" "opencv-python==4.5.5.64" \
"scikit-learn==1.0.2" "symengine>=0.10.0" "sympy==1.12" "timm>=1.0.3" "torch-optimizer==0.3.0" "transforms3d==0.3.1" \
"typing==3.7.4.3" "pillow==10.0.1" "notebook==6.4.12" "mistune==2.0.3" "pint==0.19.2" "tensorboard>=2.8.0"The recommended Modulus docker image can be pulled from the NVIDIA Container Registry:
docker pull nvcr.io/nvidia/modulus/modulus:24.04For a local build of the Modulus Symbolic Python package from source use:
git clone [email protected]:NVIDIA/modulus-sym.git && cd modulus-sym
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install .To build release image, you will need to do the below preliminary steps:
Clone this repo, and download the Optix SDK from https://developer.nvidia.com/designworks/optix/downloads/legacy.
git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/modulus-sym.git
cd modulus-sym/ && mkdir depsCurrently Modulus supports v7.0. Place the Optix file in the deps directory and make it executable. Also clone the pysdf library in the deps folder (NVIDIA Internal)
chmod +x deps/NVIDIA-OptiX-SDK-7.0.0-linux64.sh
git clone <internal pysdf repo>Then to build the image, insert next tag and run below:
docker build -t modulus-sym:deploy \
--build-arg TARGETPLATFORM=linux/amd64 --target deploy -f Dockerfile .Alternatively, if you want to skip pysdf installation, you can run the following:
docker build -t modulus-sym:deploy \
--build-arg TARGETPLATFORM=linux/amd64 --target no-pysdf -f Dockerfile .Currently only linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 platforms are supported.
