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 lumping 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 …

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 …

Abstract Continuous‐assumed‐strain (CAS) elements were recently introduced (Casquero
and Golestanian. Comput Methods Appl Mech Eng. 2022; 399: 115354.) to remove the …

A quadrilateral bi-cubic G 1-conforming finite element for the analysis of Kirchhoff–Love
shell assemblies based on the rational Gregory interpolation is presented. The Gregory …

This article extends the subset of analysis-suitable unstructured T-splines (ASUT-splines)
that have C 1 continuity in irregular regions to allow non-uniform knots at extraordinary …

This work undertakes to combine the interests of IsoGeometric Analysis (IGA) and standard
Finite Element Methods (FEM) for the global/local simulation of structures. The idea is to …

In this work, we propose incorporating the finite cell method (FCM) into the absolute nodal
coordinate formulation (ANCF) to improve the efficiency and robustness of ANCF elements …
