Abstract
A method for performing T-spline based isogeometric analysis is disclosed. An analysis suitable geometry (ASG) description is initially generated from a T-spline surface or volume computer-aid design (CAD) description. Subsequently, a T-spline based isogometric analysis (IGA) code structure that uses the ASG description having ASG analysis ready data is generated.
Claims9
A method for performing T-spline based isogeometric analysis, said method comprising:
- generating an analysis suitable geometry (ASG) description from a T-spline surface or volume computer-aid design (CAD) description;
