SMART 2014

First International Conference on Subdivision, Geometric and Algebraic Methods,
Isogeometric Analysis and Refinability in Tuscany


This workshop is the continuation and enrichment of the previous workshops Subdivision and Refinability held in Pontignano in 2008, 2009 and 2011. The main goal of SMART 2014 is to promote the research fields involved in Subdivision, Geometric and Algebraic Methods, Isogeometric Analysis and Refinability, in particular in recognizing new emerging fields.

Topics of interest include: Algebraic and Differential Geometry, Computer Aided Design, Curve and Surface Design, Finite Elements, NURBS and Isogeometric Analysis, Refinability, Approximation Theory, Subdivision, Wavelets and Multi-Resolution Methods.
