The level set method is a popular technique for tracking moving interfaces in several disciplines including computer vision and fluid dynamics. However, despite its high flexibility, the original level set method is limited by two important numerical issue ...

Despite recent progress, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of bone based on microCT imaging involves many manual steps and assumptions, being time consuming and error prone.As a consequence, these different modeling strategies may not necessary lead to the sam ...
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 ...
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 project, we present some applications of Isogeometric Analysis in stationary fluid dynamics problems. Specially, we focus on the numerical solution of the Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations and the fulfillment of the inf-sup conditions, specificall ...
This review paper collects several results that form part of the theoretical foundation of isogeometric methods. We analyse variational techniques for the numerical resolution of PDEs based on splines or NURBS and we provide optimal approximation and error ...
We propose a strategy for the systematic construction of the mimetic inner products on cochain spaces for the numerical approximation of partial differential equations on unstructured polygonal and polyhedral meshes. The mimetic inner products are locally ...
In this paper we show how the deployment of a lightweight note sharing system can restore the antique social vocation of annotations in the classroom. The system was designed for the classroom context and evaluated through a longitudinal study lasting for ...
This paper deals with the numerical approximation of the stationary two-dimensional Stokes equations, formulated in terms of vorticity, velocity and pressure, with non-standard boundary conditions. Here, by introducing a Galerkin least-squares term, we end ...
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 ...
