Event Details/Other Comments:

Geometric models are the basis for the construction of domain
discretizations used in many computational mechanics
simulations. Geometry is a bottleneck in these simulations because of
the work required to convert a typical CAD model into the desired
analysis model. Furthermore, there are growing opportunities to use
geometry to support advanced techniques like geometry-fitted adaptive
mesh refinement, smooth-surface contact detection, and coarsening of
mesh models. We invite submissions describing geometric algorithms
used during all stages of the mechanics analysis process.
