The use of T-splines [30] in Isogeometric Analysis [24] has been proposed in [5] as a tool to enhance the flexibility of isogeometric methods. If T-splines are a very general concept, their success in isogeometric analysis relies upon some basic properties ...
In this paper we provide a piecewise linear Galerkin approximation of a second order transmission problem across a highly conductive prefractal layer of von Koch type. We firstly generate an appropriate mesh adapted to the geometric shape of the interface ...
We consider the problem of actively learning \textit{multi-index} functions of the form f(x)=g(Ax)=∑i=1kgi(aiTx) from point evaluations of f. We assume that the function f is defined on an ℓ2-ball in \Reald, g is twice contin ...
A Dirichlet problem for orthogonal Hessians in two dimensions is explicitly solved, by characterizing all piecewise C-2 functions u Omega subset of R-2 -> R with orthogonal Hessian in terms of a property named "second order angle condition" as in (1 1) ...
In this paper we introduce methods for electromagnetic wave propagation, based on splines and on T-splines. We define spline spaces which form a De Rham complex and following the isogeometric paradigm, we map them on domains which are (piecewise) spline or ...
It is known that a Green's function-type condition may be used to derive rates for approximation by radial basis functions (RBFs). In this paper, we introduce a method for obtaining rates for approximation by functions which can be convolved with a finite ...
The aim of this article is to describe families of representations of the Yang-Mills algebras YM(n) (n∈N≥2) defined by A. Connes and M. Dubois-Violette. We first describe some irreducible finite dimensional representations. Next, we provide families of inf ...
Many studies have suggested that the motor system is organized in a hierarchical fashion, around the prototypical end location associated with using objects. However, most studies supporting the hierarchical view have used well-known actions and objects th ...
In this paper, we propose a theoretical study of the approximation properties of NURBS spaces, which are used in Isogeometric Analysis. We obtain error estimates that are explicit in terms of the mesh-size h, the degree p and the global regularity, measure ...
We demonstrate that non-separable box splines deployed on body centered cubic lattices (BCC) are suitable for fast evaluation on present graphics hardware. Therefore, we develop the linear and quintic box splines using a piecewise polynomial (pp)-form as o ...
