Novel Surface‐Based Bézier Metamaterials: A Higher Degree of Parametrization toward Tailoring the Effective Properties under Compression

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 22, November 2025.
Cubic Bézier curves are used in the synthesis of novel surface‐based metamaterials with tunable mechanical properties. Surface‐based geometries are 3D printed and tested in compression. The resulting mechanical properties are correlated to changes in the shape of the base curve, with high potential in energy absorption through the adjustment of their ...

Comparing cranial biomechanics between Barbourofelis fricki and Smilodon fatalis: Is there a universal killing‐bite among saber‐toothed predators?

The Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 11, Page 2962-2975, November 2025.
Abstract Saber‐tooths, extinct apex predators with long and blade‐like upper canines, have appeared iteratively at least five times in the evolutionary history of vertebrates. Although saber‐tooths exhibit a relatively diverse range of morphologies, it is widely accepted that all killed their prey using the same predatory behavior. In this study, we CT‐

The Discretization‐Corrected Particle Strength Method for the Barotropic Vorticity Equations

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 97, Issue 11, Page 1426-1440, November 2025.
Numerical solution for the barotropic vorticity equation in complex geometry using the meshless point collocation method. The spatial domain is represented by a set of nodes. The collocation method numerically solves the strong form governing equations.

Renaissance vaults: geometry, nurbs and computational opportunities for reconstruction

Disegnare con, 2021
Creating an interpretative geometric representation of architectural shapes is crucial to learn the essence of any architecture, to preserve it and to hand it down through the ages to our descendants.

Domain‐adaptive self‐supervised learning for corrosion detection and 3D building information model mapping in steel tunnels

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 26, Page 4425-4447, 7 November 2025.
Abstract Accurate detection and localization of steel corrosion in tunnel infrastructure remains a major challenge, particularly under conditions of variable lighting, limited accessibility, and visual domain shifts common in real‐world inspection scenarios.

On two-field NURBS-based isogeometric formulation for incompressible media problems

Vietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2013
This paper presents u-p mixed formulation relied on the framework of NURBS-based Isogeometric approach (IgA) for incompressible problems. In mixed method, displacement (velocity) field is approximated using NURBS basis functions with one order higher ...

The crucial role of meshing in computational fluid dynamics simulations for organic geometries in paleobiology: Describing fluid dynamics performance through best practices

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2170-2194, October 2025.
Abstract Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become an essential tool for studying fluid interactions in biological systems. While widely used in engineering, its application in the natural sciences, particularly in paleobiology, remains limited due to the challenges of meshing complex organic geometries.

A locking-free quadratic nurbs-based isogeometric formulation for plates analysis

Ho Chi Minh City Open University Journal of Science - Engineering and Technology, 2012
A new Reissner-Mindlin plate formulation based on a quadratic NURBS-based isogeometric is presented. In order to avoid the transverse shear locking and to improve the accuracy of the present formulation, the quadratic NURBS-based isogeometric is ...

Watermarking Algorithms for 3D NURBS Graphic Data

EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2004
Two watermarking algorithms for 3D nonuniform rational B-spline (NURBS) graphic data are proposed: one is appropriate for the steganography, and the other for watermarking.
