G-splines are a generalization of B-splines that deals with extraordinary points by imposing G^1 constraints across their spoke edges, thus obtaining a continuous tangent plane throughout the surface. Using the isoparametric concept and the…

This paper presents the first method for constructing bases for polynomial spline spaces over an arbitrary T-meshes (PT-splines for short). We construct spline basis functions for an arbitrary T-mesh by first converting the T-mesh into a…

Geometrically continuous splines are piecewise polynomial functions defined on a collection of patches which are stitched together through transition maps. They are called $G^{r}$-splines if, after composition with the transition maps, they…

In this paper we investigate numerically the order of convergence of an isogeometric collocation method that builds upon the least-squares collocation method presented in [1] and the variational collocation method presented in [2]. The…

A new efficient orthogonalization of the B-spline basis is proposed and contrasted with some previous orthogonalized methods. The resulting orthogonal basis of splines is best visualized as a net of functions rather than a sequence of them.…

Generalizing tensor-product splines to smooth functions whose control nets outline topological polyhedra, bi-cubic polyhedral splines form a piecewise polynomial, first-order differentiable space that associates one function with each…

In this paper we present a method for direct evaluation of generalized B-splines (GB-splines) via the local representation of these curves as piecewise functions. To accomplish this we introduce a local structure that makes GB-spline curves…

We present an algorithm for fast generation of quasi-uniform and variable-spacing nodes on domains whose boundaries are represented as computer-aided design (CAD) models, more specifically non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS). This new…

We introduce a smooth B-spline discretization in polar coordinates on the unit disc that corrects the loss of regularity present at the origin caused by the coordinate singularity in standard tensor-product B-spline formulations. The method…

Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) surfaces are commonly used within Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools to represent geometric objects. When using isogeometric analysis (IGA), it is possible to use such NURBS geometries for numerical…

The space of $C^1$ cubic Clough-Tocher splines is a classical finite element approximation space over triangulations for solving partial differential equations. However, for such a space there is no B-spline basis available, which is a…

A mixed continuous / discontinuous Galerkin scheme is introduced for the simulation of fluid-structure interaction problems in an isogeometric analysis framework. The properties of Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline basis functions are leveraged…

Presented here is a preliminary study of a strictly linear, discontinuous-Petrov-Galerkin scheme for the discrete-ordinates method in slab geometry. By ``linear'', we mean the discretization does not depend on the solution itself as is the…

Spectral methods are renowned for their high accuracy and efficiency in solving partial differential equations. The Fourier pseudo-spectral method is limited to periodic domains and suffers from Gibbs oscillations in non-periodic problems.…

This paper discusses the dimensions of the spline spaces over T-meshes with lower degree. Two new concepts are proposed: extension of T-meshes and spline spaces with homogeneous boundary conditions. In the dimension analysis, the key…

We introduce new manifold-based splines that are able to exactly reproduce B-splines on unstructured surface meshes. Such splines can be used in isogeometric analysis (IGA) to represent smooth surfaces of arbitrary topology. Since prevalent…

We analyze the space of geometrically continuous piecewise polynomial functions or splines for quadrangular and triangular patches with arbitrary topology and general rational transition maps. To define these spaces of G 1 spline functions,…

In this paper we describe an adaptive refinement strategy for LR B-splines. The presented strategy ensures, at each iteration, local linear independence of the obtained set of LR B-splines. This property is then exploited in two…

A Petrov-Galerkin finite element method is constructed for a singularly perturbed elliptic problem in two space dimensions. The solution contains a regular boundary layer and two characteristic boundary layers. Exponential splines are used…

In this paper, we develop approximation error estimates as well as corresponding inverse inequalities for B-splines of maximum smoothness, where both the function to be approximated and the approximation error are measured in standard…
