BIM-based framework of automatic tunnel segment assembly and deviation control

open access: yesUnderground Space
The design of universal segments and deviation control of segment assembly are essential for robust and low-risk tunnel construction. A building information modeling (BIM)-based framework was proposed for parametric modeling, automatic assembly, and ...

Simulation of crack propagation using isogeometric analysis applied with NURBS and LR B-splines

open access: yes, 2012
This report features the isogeometric finite element method applied to the elastodynamic problem in a brittle medium with a potential for cracking. Griffith's theory for fracturing is used.

Radiation of a source on a convex NURBS surface

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we propose a technique for computing the ray caustic distance parameter on an arbitrary convex surface described by Non-Uniform Rational B-splines (NURBS) surface representation.

NURBS snakes

open access: yes, 2003
A new formulation of energy minimising splines, based on Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) curves, is presented. The existing snake models do not facilitate the local control of their shapes without increasing the number of control points.

STRUCTURAL SHAPE OPTIMIZATION BY ISOGEOMETRIC BOUNDARY ELEMENT METHOD

open access: yesJixie qiangdu, 2019
In Isogeometric boundary element method(IGA-BEM), Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines(NURBS) which are used for describing the geometric boundary in a computer-aided geometric design(CAGD) are employed as shape functions of Boundary Element Method.

The Multilevel Structures of NURBs and NURBlets on Intervals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This dissertation is concerned with the problem of constructing biorthogonal wavelets based on non-uniform rational cubic B-Splines on intervals. We call non-uniform rational B-Splines ``NURBs , and such biorthogonal wavelets ``NURBlets .

TURBS - Topologically Unrestricted Rational B-Splines

open access: yes, 1995
We present a new approach to the construction of piecewise polynomial or rational C k -spline surfaces of arbitrary topological structure. The basic idea is to use exclusively parametric smoothness conditions, and to solve the well known problems at ...

NURBS-ENHANCED FINITE ELEMENT METHOD

open access: yes, 2006
An improvement of the classical finite element method is proposed. It considers an exact representation of the geometry by means of the usual CAD description of the boundary with Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS).
