Stabilized isogeometric discretizations on trimmed and union geometries, and weak imposition of the boundary conditions for the Darcy flow

Modern manufacturing engineering is based on a ``design-through-analysis'' workflow. According to this paradigm, a prototype is first designed with Computer-aided-design (CAD) software and then finalized by simulating its physical behavior, which usually i ...

Adaptive analysis-aware defeaturing

Ondine Gabrielle Chanon

Removing geometrical details from a complex domain is a classical operation in computer aided design for simulation and manufacturing. This procedure simplifies the meshing process, and it enables faster simulations with less memory requirements. However, ...

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 ...

Hierarchically refined isogeometric analysis of trimmed shells

Luca Coradello, Alessandro Reali, Davide D'Angella

This work focuses on the study of several computational challenges arising when trimmed surfaces are directly employed for the isogeometric analysis of Kirchhoff-Love shells. To cope with these issues and to resolve mechanical and/or geometrical features o ...

A framework to automate the design of digitally-fabricated timber plate structures

Yves Weinand, Nicolas Henry Pierre Louis Rogeau, Aryan Rezaei Rad, Petras Vestartas, Henry V. Burton

The current study uses knowledge from digital architecture, computer science, engineering informatics, and structural engineering to formulate an algorithmic framework for integrated Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) of Integ ...

Spline Shape Processing : Representation, Learning, and Modeling

Daniel Andreas Schmitter

In this thesis, we present a novel generic and unifying framework for data-adaptive shape modeling. Our work is motivated by the raising need for powerful geometric modeling kernels that are required for shape characterization in biomedical imaging. The on ...

Sphere-Meshes for Real-Time Hand Modeling and Tracking

Mark Pauly, Anastasia Tkach, Andrea Tagliasacchi

Modern systems for real-time hand tracking rely on a combination of discriminative and generative approaches to robustly recover hand poses. Generative approaches require the specification of a geometric model. In this paper, we propose a the use of sphere ...

Estimating Hip Joint Contact Pressure from Geometric Features

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Ehsan Arbabi

Hip mechanical simulation for estimating pressures within the soft tissues during the loads and motions of daily activities is a common approach to investigate hip joint pathology. Many computational approaches estimate the pressure and contact pressures v ...

On the behavior of spherical and non-spherical grain assemblies, its modeling and numerical simulation

Lionel Pournin

This thesis deals with the numerical modeling and simulation of granular media with large populations of non-spherical particles. Granular media are highly pervasive in nature and play an important role in technology. They are present in fields as diverse ...

Acquiring, structuring shapes and annotating them with semantics to improve design activities

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo

Shapes incorporate geometry as well as semantics and can be defined in 2D, 3D or higher dimensions. Geometric models can be structured in such a way that they can provide a relevant framework to insert semantic information or view dependent information abo ...
