4. Highlights:
- You can register for the competition individually or as a team.
- CMAMC will give you an engineering problem (question of the competition) in metals AM.
- CMAMC will give the participants the software for process modeling of metals AM which is 'AM Comp Tech Software.' You will receive a download link of the software (by 1st February 2021) with a description of the problem that must be solved by simulation.
- You will recieve the updates of the competition's overall details, how to use the software (AM Comp Tech software looks like a virtual metal 3D printer), how to submit your computational findings/design, how the answers will be scored, etc., by 1st February 2021.
- You need to report your design and results in the CMAMC format. Then CMAMC can score your design.
- The goal is to find the best possible solution for the problem with computer simulation.
- The best (top three) computational answers will be awarded. All participants will get their engineering design score in an official format.
- Innovation, creativity, accuracy, reproducibility, and production cost are the most crucial subjects in this competition.
- You will be informed about the scoring method by the date of registration!
- Your computational results are yours. You can publish your design/results in a journal mentioning that the simulations are done in CMAMC 2021 by AM Comp Tech Software or give them to us to make your simulation public for everyone on the CMAMC webpage.
- If you want to publish your computational results in the CMAMC 2021 in a peer-reviewed or preprint journal, CMAMC will help you.
