AIAA Geometry and Mesh Generation Workshop (GMGW)
GMGW Objectives
Geometry and Mesh Generation Workshops (GMGW) assess the current state-of-the art in geometry and mesh generation technology and software as applied to aircraft and spacecraft systems. They will help identify and develop understanding of areas of needed improvement (performance, accuracy, applicability) in geometry and mesh generation technology software. And they will provide a foundation for documenting best practices for geometry and mesh generation.
Workshops are open to participants worldwide and provide an unbiased forum for discussion of results and promotion and cross-pollination of best practices. Participants (those people who generate meshes) and any interested parties who wish to attend, listen, and contribute are welcome.
GMGW-3 at SciTech 2022
The 3rd AIAA Geometry and Mesh Generation Workshop (GMGW-3) was held in conjunction with the 4th AIAA High Lift Prediction Workshop on January 7, 2022 at the AIAA SciTech Forum in San Diego, CA.
