Isogeometric analysis (IGA) represents a recently developed technology in computational
mechanics that offers the possibility of integrating methods for analysis and Computer Aided …

This review paper collects several results that form part of the theoretical foundation of
isogeometric methods. We analyse variational techniques for the numerical resolution of …

In this paper, we develop a geometrically flexible technique for computational fluid–structure
interaction (FSI). The motivating application is the simulation of tri-leaflet bioprosthetic heart …

The problem of contact between two elastic bodies is addressed computationally using the
virtual element method (VEM). The use of the VEM allows the use of non-matching meshes …

An extended isogeometric element formulation (XIGA) for analysis of through-the-thickness
cracks in thin shell structures is developed. The discretization is based on Non-Uniform …

We propose a framework that combines variational immersed-boundary and arbitrary
Lagrangian–Eulerian methods for fluid–structure interaction (FSI) simulation of a …

The boundary element method (BEM) is a powerful tool in computational acoustics, because
the analysis is conducted only on structural surfaces, compared to the finite element method …

A new concept called analysis in computer aided design (AiCAD) is proposed for design-
through-analysis workflow. This concept uses non-uniform rational B-Splines (NURBS) …

Nitsche's method can be used as a coupling tool for non-matching discretizations by weakly
enforcing interface constraints. We explore the use of weak coupling based on Nitsche's …

We present a Nitche's method to couple non-conforming two and three-dimensional non
uniform rational b-splines (NURBS) patches in the context of isogeometric analysis. We …
