About SCULPT

The Shape Creation Using Layouts, Programs, & Technology (SCULPT) presents original research at the intersection of theory and practice in shape modeling, fabrication, construction, manufacturing, sculpting, and architecture. SCULPT is the forerunner of Fabrication and Sculpting Event (FASE) in SMI. Like its predecessor, SCULPT focuses on the practical problems of generating physical shapes and specifically addresses the interplay of theory and practice. SCULPT invites practitioners who have inspiring ideas to contribute their work concerned with techniques to design and physically realize the shapes. The presented work should have clear algorithmic or mathematical bases. We are also interested in inverse process to obtain a clean CAD model from given physical artifacts.



SCULPT 2022: Submitting a Paper

IMPORTANT DATES (TBD)

Abstract submission: : Friday, April 22 (flexible)th, 2022
Full paper submission: : Monday, April 25st, 2022
Review notification: Monday, May 23st, 2022
Camera ready full papers due: Monday, June 6th, 2022
Conference: Monday-Wendesday, June 27th-29th, 2022

Topics

SCULPT solicits papers that pose new questions and motivate further research in designing, fabrication, and sculpting. Topics should be useful, for example, in the following areas:

  • Fabrication of digital models
  • Advanced manufacturing techniques such as additive manufacturing, laser cutting or CNC milling
  • Interactive or procedural design of manufacturable shapes
  • Interconnections of complex modeling and fabrication processes
  • Visually stimulating fabrication techniques or printed structures

Paper Format

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:

  • Full Papers describing methods in detail with a limit of 16 pages.
  • Short Papers describing methods in less detail with a limit of 8 pages.
  • Posters describing methods in mush less detail with a limit of 4 pages.

Submission

All SCULPT paper submissions (including full and short papers) will be handled via the EasyChair System, following a one-stage peer review cycle. Accepted SCULPT papers will be published in a special issue of the Hyperseeing magazine. SCULPT paper presentations will be 15 minutes in length. They will be presented in a specific SCULPT session at the SMI'2022. Authors of accepted papers must register for the joint SMI+SPN+SCULPT conference and are expected to give an on-line Zoom presentation in a special scheduled on-line SCULPT session.

When and Where

SMI'SCULPT will be a part of Shape Modeling International conference (SMI 2022) and will take place from June 27th to 29th as an online event.
