Analysis-suitable adaptive T-mesh refinement with linear complexity [PDF]
We present an efficient adaptive refinement procedure that preserves analysis-suitability of the T-mesh, this is, the linear independence of the T-spline blending functions.

Powell-Sabin B-splines and unstructured standard T-splines for the solution of the Kirchhoff-Love plate theory exploiting Bézier extraction [PDF]
The equations that govern Kirchhoff–Love plate theory are solved using quadratic Powell–Sabin B-splines and unstructured standard T-splines. Bézier extraction is exploited to make the formulation computationally efficient.

Linear dependence of bivariate Minimal Support and Locally Refined B-splines over LR-meshes [PDF]
The focus on locally refined spline spaces has grown rapidly in recent years due to the need in Isogeoemtric analysis (IgA) of spline spaces with local adaptivity: a property not offered by the strict regular structure of tensor product B-spline spaces ...

T-Spline Polygonal Complexes [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe notion of polygonal complexes was originally conceived as a means for exact interpolation of uniform B-spline curves by Doo-Sabin (and later on by Catmull-Clark) subdivision surfaces. Starting from the theoretical origin of these complexes, this paper provides a general formulation of this notion that covers all quad-based (uniform/non ...

The Analysis of T-spline Fairness [PDF]
AbstractThe fairness of curves and surfaces has been used in the shape design of industrial products more and more widely. With the wide applications of T-splines in the surface modeling, this paper analyzes the fairness of T-splines and gives some fairness properties of standard T-splines and semi-standard T-splines.

The role of the Bézier extraction operator for T-splines of arbitrary degree: linear dependencies, partition of unity property, nesting behaviour and local refinement [PDF]
We determine linear dependencies and the partition of unity property of T-spline meshes of arbitrary degree using the Bézier extraction operator. Local refinement strategies for standard, semi-standard and nonstandard T-splines – also by making use of ...

Comparison Between T-Spline Surface and NURBS Surface [PDF]
This research uses T-spline for surface modeling and compares it with NURBS modeling to get the best modeling points between the two methods. The comparison will be through surface analysis and manufacturing process.T-Splines surfaces typically have 50 ...

APPROXIMATION BY LOCAL PARABOLIC SPLINES CONSTRUCTED ON THE BASIS OF INTERPOLATION IN THE MEAN
The paper deals with approximative and form-retaining properties of the local parabolic splines of the form \(S(x)=\sum\limits_j y_j B_2 (x-jh),\) \( (h>0),\) where \(B_2\) is a normalized parabolic spline with the uniform nodes and functionals \(y_j=y_j(

Unstructured spline spaces for isogeometric analysis based on spline manifolds
Based on spline manifolds we introduce and study a mathematical framework for analysis-suitable unstructured B-spline spaces. In this setting the parameter domain has a manifold structure, which allows for the definition of function spaces that have a ...
