The Symposium on Solid and Physical Modeling (SPM) is an international conference series organised annually with the support of the Solid Modeling Association (SMA). The conference aims at all aspects of geometric and physical modeling, and their application in design, analysis and manufacturing, as well as in biomedical, geophysical, digital entertainment, and other areas. The conference serves also as a ceremony for awarding the 2023 Pierre Bézier Prize for contributions to solid, shape, and physical modeling.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
3D fabrication/printing/manufacturing technologies
Anisotropic/heterogeneous/composite materials
Applied algebraic and differential geometry
Applied computational geometry and topology
Conceptual, collaborative, and distributed design
Computational fabrication
Curve, surface, and manifold modeling
Dimensioning and tolerancing
Feature modeling, recognition, and understanding
Geometric algorithms
Geometric and topological representations
Geometric constraint solving and parametric modeling
Geometric interpolation and smoothing
Geometry generation and processing
Geometry compression and transmission
Isogeometric analysis
Meshing and mesh optimization
Multi-resolution modeling
Numerical analysis of geometric algorithms
Physically-based modeling and simulation
Product data exchange, standards, and interoperability
Reverse engineering/reconstruction of surfaces/solids
Robustness and validity of geometric computations
Shape modeling, synthesis and analysis
Paper Submissions: Accepted full-length papers will be published in the journal of Computer-Aided Design (Elsevier) after a rigorous two-stage double-blind review process. Papers should be formatted according to the style guidelines for Computer-Aided Design and should not exceed 12 pages, including figures and references. We strongly recommend using the LaTeX template to format your paper, but we also accept papers formatted by MS Word according to the style guidelines for Computer-Aided Design (Elsevier). The file must be submitted in PDF format using the EasyChair website https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=spm20230.
