Robust numerical integration on curved polyhedra based on folded decompositions

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Xiaodong Wei

We present a novel method to perform numerical integration over curved polyhedra enclosed by high-order parametric surfaces. Such a polyhedron is first decomposed into a set of triangular and/or rectangular pyramids, whose certain faces correspond to the g ...

A finite element framework based on bivariate simplex splines on triangle configurations

Xiaodong Wei

Recently, triangle configuration based bivariate simplex splines (referred to as TCB-spline) have been introduced to the geometric computing community. TCB-splines retain many attractive theoretic properties of classical B-splines, such as partition of uni ...

Immersed boundary-conformal isogeometric method for linear elliptic problems

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Xiaodong Wei

We present a novel isogeometric method, namely the Immersed Boundary-Conformal Method (IBCM), that features a layer of discretization conformal to the boundary while employing a simple background mesh for the remaining domain. In this manner, we leverage t ...

Quadratic serendipity element shape functions on general planar polygons

Xiaodong Wei

This paper proposes a method for the construction of quadratic serendipity element (QSE) shape functions on planar convex and concave polygons. Existing approaches for constructing QSE shape functions are linear combinations of the pair-wise products of ge ...

TCB-spline-based isogeometric analysis method with high-quality parameterizations

Xiaodong Wei

Isogeometric analysis (IGA) was introduced to integrate methods for analysis and computer-aided design (CAD) into a unified process. High-quality parameterization of a physical domain plays a crucial role in IGA. However, obtaining high-quality parameteriz ...

Seamless integration of design and Kirchhoff-Love shell analysis using analysis-suitable unstructured T-splines

Xiaodong Wei

Analysis-suitable T-splines (ASTS) including both extraordinary points and T-junctions are used to solve Kirchhoff-Love shell problems. Extraordinary points are required to represent surfaces with arbitrary topological genus. T-junctions enable local refin ...

Overlapping Multipatch Isogeometric Method With Minimal Stabilization

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Xiaodong Wei, Riccardo Puppi

We present a novel method for isogeometric analysis (IGA) to directly work on geometries constructed by Boolean operations including difference (i.e., trimming), union, and intersection. Particularly, this work focuses on the union operation, which involve ...

Tuned hybrid nonuniform subdivision surfaces with optimal convergence rates

Xiaodong Wei

This article presents an enhanced version of our previous work, hybrid nonuniform subdivision (HNUS) surfaces, to achieve optimal convergence rates in isogeometric analysis (IGA). We introduce a parameter lambda (14

Analysis-suitable unstructured T-splines: Multiple extraordinary points per face

Xiaodong Wei

Analysis-suitable T-splines (AST-splines) are a promising candidate to achieve a seamless integration between the design and the analysis of thin-walled structures in industrial settings. In this work, we allow multiple extraordinary points per face, i.e., ...
