The symposium brings together a wide variety of disciplines for the exchange of technical information related to unstructured mesh generation.

This symposium is a part of the US National Congress on Computational Mechanics and will be held in San Francisco, California on July 23-26 2007.

Topics of interest include:

• Surface and volume meshing algorithms
• Mesh improvement criteria and algorithms
• Mesh adaptation algorithms
• Anisotropic mesh generation and adaptation
• Dealing with geometry issues including, dirty geometry, integration with CAD and high order elements
• Mesh evolution in evolving geometry problems
• Automatic geometric simplification techniques
• Interesting applications of automated and adaptive analysis
• Novel new domain discretization schemes
• Parallel implementations and control of very large meshes
• The Design-through-Analysis Process including data translation, automation, best practices, data standards, and design for analysis issues.
