Large-scale structural topology optimization has always suffered from prohibitively high
computational costs that have till date hindered its widespread use in industrial design. The …

In the past two decades, meshfree methods have emerged into a new class of computational
methods with considerable success. In addition, a significant amount of progress has been …

In this paper we propose an algorithm for the formation of matrices of isogeometric Galerkin
methods. The algorithm is based on three ideas. The first is that we perform the external loop …

We continue the study initiated in Hughes et al.(2010) in search of optimal quadrature rules
for tensor product and hierarchically refined splines in isogeometric analysis. These rules …

In this paper an interactive parametric design-through-analysis platform is proposed to help
design engineers and analysts make more effective use of Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) to …

This article reviews state-of-the-art numerical techniques for fluid–structure interaction (FSI)
of full-scale wind-turbine systems. Simulation of floating wind turbines subjected to …

This work presents a collection of advanced computational methods, and their coupling, that
enable prediction of fatigue-damage evolution in full-scale composite blades of wind …

The global (patch-wise) geometry map, which describes the computational domain, is a new
feature in isogeometric analysis. This map has a global tensor structure, inherited from the …

An efficient nesting sub-domain gradient smoothing integration algorithm is proposed for
Galerkin meshfree methods with particular reference to the quadratic exactness. This …

Meshfree methods such as reproducing kernel (RK) approximation are suitable for modeling
fluid flow problems because of their flexibility in controlling local smoothness and order of …
