IGA: Non-Invasive Coupling with FEM and Regularization of Digital Image Correlation Problems, Volume 2

Isogeometric analysis (IGA) consists of using the same higher-order and smooth spline functions for the representation of geometry in Computer Aided Design as for the approximation of solution fields in Finite Element Analysis. Now, almost twenty years after its creation, substantial works are being reported in IGA, making it very competitive in scientific computing.

This book proposes to use IGA jointly with standard finite element methods (FEM), presenting IGA as a projection of FEM on a ...
