We propose new quadrature schemes that asymptotically require only four in-plane points
for Reissner–Mindlin shell elements and nine in-plane points for Kirchhoff–Love shell …

We present a mass lum** approach based on an isogeometric Petrov–Galerkin method
that preserves higher-order spatial accuracy in explicit dynamics calculations irrespective of …

We propose a comprehensive Isogeometric Kirchhoff–Love shell framework that is capable
of undergoing large elasto-plastic deformations. Central to this development, we reformulate …

This work proposes two efficient quadrature rules, reduced Gauss quadrature and Gauss–
Greville quadrature, for isogeometric analysis. The rules are constructed to exactly integrate …

We develop a mixed geometrically nonlinear isogeometric Reissner–Mindlin shell element
for the analysis of thin-walled structures that leverages Bézier dual basis functions to …

We formulate a methodology to enforce interface conditions preserving higher-order
continuity across the interface. Isogeometrical methods (IGA) naturally allow us to deal with …

NURBS-based discretizations of the Galerkin method suffer from membrane locking when
applied to primal formulations of curved thin-walled structures. We consider linear plane …

In order to perform isogeometric analysis with increased smoothness on complex domains,
trimming, variational coupling or unstructured spline methods can be used. The latter two …

Isogeometric shape optimization uses a unique model for the geometric description and for
the analysis. The benefits are multiple: in particular, it avoids tedious procedures related to …
