Non Uniform Rational B Spline (NURBS) Based Non-Linear Analysis of Straight Beams with Mixed Formulations

Multi-resolution Smoothing of Nurbs Curves Based on Non-uniform B-spline Wavelets

As a rule, an energy method is widely adopted for b-spline curve smoothing, but this method has the disadvantages such as massive calculation, computation complexity and low efficiency. Compared with the energy method, multi-resolution smoothing approaches nicely overcome these obstacles. Presently, some researches have been conducted on multi-resolution smoothing, but these efforts mainly aime...

Free Vibration Analysis of Functionally Graded Materials Non-uniform Beams

In this article, nonuniformity effects on free vibration analysis of functionally graded beams is discussed. variation in material properties is modeled after Powerlaw and exponential models and the non-uniformity is assumed to be exponentially varying in the width along the beams with constant thickness. Analytical solution is achieved for free vibration with simply supported conditions. It is...

a new type-ii fuzzy logic based controller for non-linear dynamical systems with application to 3-psp parallel robot

abstract type-ii fuzzy logic has shown its superiority over traditional fuzzy logic when dealing with uncertainty. type-ii fuzzy logic controllers are however newer and more promising approaches that have been recently applied to various fields due to their significant contribution especially when the noise (as an important instance of uncertainty) emerges. during the design of type- i fuz...

Analysis of Free Vibration of Triangular Plates with Non-Uniform Linear Thickness and Arbitrary Boundary Conditions

Dynamic Non-Uniform Rational B=Splines

Non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) have become a de facto standard in commercial modeling systems because of their power to represent both free-form shapes and some common analytic shapes. To date, however, NURBS have been viewed as purely geometric primitives, which require the designer to interactively adjust many degrees of freedom (DOFs )-control points and associated weights-to achieve...

NURBS Surface Reconstruction Using Rational B-spline Neural Networks

Surface reconstruction is a very challenging step in Reverse Engineering. It generates a surface from point cloud acquired from a part surface. NURBS surfaces are commonly used for freeform surface reconstruction. There are several algorithms of NURBS surface reconstruction including: Least Squares Methods, simulated annealing, and particle swarm optimization. The major problem of these methods...
