This paper presents an immersed, isogeometric finite element framework to predict the response of multi-material, multi-physics problems with complex geometries using locally refined discretizations. To circumvent the need to generate…
We introduce a new paradigm for immersed finite element and isogeometric methods based on interpolating function spaces from an unfitted background mesh into Lagrange finite element spaces defined on a foreground mesh that captures the…
Trimming is a ubiquitous operation in computer-aided-design whereby parts of a geometry are merged, intersected, or simply discarded. While it grants virtually unlimited flexibility in geometric design, it introduces a plethora of other…
We introduce an enriched immersed finite element method for addressing interface problems characterized by general non-homogeneous jump conditions. Unlike many existing unfitted mesh methods, our approach incorporates a homogenization…
Immersed boundary methods are high-order accurate computational tools used to model geometrically complex problems in computational mechanics. While traditional finite element methods require the construction of high-quality boundary-fitted…
Ill-conditioning of the system matrix is a well-known complication in immersed finite element methods and trimmed isogeometric analysis. Elements with small intersections with the physical domain yield problematic eigenvalues in the system…
When modeling scientific and industrial problems, geometries are typically modeled by explicit boundary representations obtained from computer-aided design software. Unfitted (also known as embedded or immersed) finite element methods offer…
The automated finite element analysis of complex CAD models using boundary-fitted meshes is rife with difficulties. Immersed finite element methods are intrinsically more robust but usually less accurate. In this work, we introduce an…
We develop a new optimisation technique that combines multiresolution subdivision surfaces for boundary description with immersed finite elements for the discretisation of the primal and adjoint problems of optimisation. Similar to wavelets…
In this paper, we introduce the Phantom Domain Finite Element Method (PDFEM), a novel computational approach tailored for the efficient analysis of heterogeneous and composite materials. Inspired by fictitious domain methods, this method…
Implicitly described domains are a well established tool in the simulation of time dependent problems, e.g. using level-set methods. In order to solve partial differential equations on such domains, a range of numerical methods was…
In this paper, we present a NURBS-enhanced finite element method that integrates the NURBS-based boundary representation of a geometric domain into a standard finite element framework for hexahedral meshes. We decompose an open, bounded,…
In the analysis of composite materials with heterogeneous microstructures, full resolution of the heterogeneities using classical numerical approaches can be computationally prohibitive. This paper presents a micromechanics-enhanced finite…
The eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) is an approach for solving problems with non-smooth solutions. In the XFEM, the approximate solution is locally enriched to capture discontinuities without requiring a mesh which conforms to the…
During design optimization, a smooth description of the geometry is important, especially for problems that are sensitive to the way interfaces are resolved, e.g., wave propagation or fluid-structure interaction. A levelset description of…
We introduce a new class of unfitted finite element methods with high order accurate numerical integration over curved surfaces and volumes which are only implicitly defined by level set functions. An unfitted finite element method which is…
The Intrinsic Surface Finite Element Method (ISFEM) was recently proposed to solve Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) on surfaces. ISFEM proceeds by writing the PDE with respect to a local coordinate system anchored to the surface and…
In this paper we develop a simple finite element method for simulation of embedded layers of high permeability in a matrix of lower permeability using a basic model of Darcy flow in embedded cracks. The cracks are allowed to cut through the…
This work introduces an innovative parallel, fully-distributed finite element framework for growing geometries and its application to metal additive manufacturing. It is well-known that virtual part design and qualification in additive…
The immersed isogeometric Boundary Element Method is presented and applied to the simulation of underground excavations. Nonuniform rational B-splines (NURBS) are used for the accurate definition of complex geometries with few parameters.…
