We hope you'll join us for a full day of talks, demos and interesting
discussions on designing, modeling and testing physical objects using
Open Source tools. This year's event will be fully virtual (:sad trombone:)
and will feature multiple channels for talks, Q&A as well as
hallway discussions (:happy dance:).
We welcome any talk proposals about the creation of physical objects.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Printed circuit board design tools
* Circuit simulation
- 3d modeling and analysis
* Solid modeling tools
* Meshing, modeling and transforming physical representations
* Finite element analysis
- 3d printing
* 3d slicing tools
* Motor control
- Machine design and integration
* ECAD/MCAD integration
* Thermal analysis
* Wire modeling
- Physical Model Data storage
* Data representation and optimization
* Version control in hardware data storage
* Collaborative and team-based hardware design techniques
Slots will be allocated for short (20 minutes), long (40 minutes)
talks and in-depth (60 minutes). This includes question time, for which
questions and answers.
Depending on the number of submissions, submitters may be asked to
utilize an alternate time format.
## The submission process
Please submit your proposals at
https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM22
If you already have a Pentabarf account (for example as a result of
having submitted a proposal in the past), make sure you use it to log in
and submit your proposal. Do not create a new account if you already
have one.
Please include the following information with your submission:
- Abstract
- Preferred Session length
- Speaker bio
- Link to any hardware / code /slides for the talk
When you submit your proposal (creating an "Event" in Pentabarf), make
sure you choose the "Open Source Computer Aided Modeling and Design" in
the track drop-down menu. Otherwise your proposal may go unnoticed.
Fill in at least a title and abstract for the proposed talk and a
suggested duration. Keep in mind that much of the value in these
meetings comes from the discussions, so please allot at least 20%
## Important dates
