Abstract

A new software, Geomiso TNL, is proposed to facilitate the use of isogeometric analysis and 3D design with NURBS and T-splines. Its dual nature eliminates geometric errors by merging geometric design with mesh generation into a single procedure. It is based on the isogeometric method, [...]

Abstract

In this article, a visual proof is given that for a certain simple, yet analytically challenging mechanical system a unique solution exists, which can be found by simple fixed-point iteration as easily to be performed by the reader. As turns out, this system is mostly intractable [...]
