Adaptive isogeometric analysis using rational PHT-splines
نویسندگان
چکیده
Polynomial splines over hierarchical T-meshes (PHT-splines) have an efficient and simple local refinement algorithm, but fail to represent exactly certain complex engineering geometries. In this paper, based on the current isogeometric framework, we overcome the drawbacks of PHT-splines by extending these to Rational PHT-splines (RPHT-splines), and explore RPHT-splines as the basis for analysis. A residual-based posteriori error estimator using RPHT-splines basis functions is derived to guide the local refinement process adaptively. Numerical examples show the potential of RPHT-splines as the basis for the adaptive isogeometric analysis. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A new basis for PHT-splines
PHT-splines (polynomials splines over hierarchical T-meshes) are a generalization of B-splines over hierarchical T-mesheswhich possess a very efficient local refinement property. This property makes PHT-splines preferable in geometric processing, adaptive finite elements and isogeometric analysis. In this paper, we first make analysis of the previously constructed basis functions of PHT-splines...

متن کاملIsogeometric-Based Modeling and Analysis of Laminated Composite Plates Under Transverse Loading
Analysis of the laminated composite plates under transverse loading is considered using the new method of Isogeometric Analysis (IGA). Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines(NURBS)are used as shape functions for modeling the geometry of the structure and also are used as shape functions in the analysis process. To show robustness of the new technique, some examples are represented and are compared with...

We explore T-splines, a generalization of NURBS enabling local refinement, as a basis for isogeometric analysis. We review T-splines as a surface design methodology and then develop it for engineering analysis applications. We test T-splines on some elementary twodimensional and three-dimensional fluid and structural analysis problems and attain good results in all cases. We summarize current l...

An interaction integral method for evaluating mixed-mode stress intensity factors (SIFs) for two dimensional crack problems using NURBS-based isogeometric analysis method is investigated. The interaction integral method is based on the path independent J-integral. By introducing a known auxiliary field solution, the mixed-mode SIFs are calculated simultaneously.
