Isogeometric analysis has indisputable benefits for the analysis of curved beams. Due to the use of spline basis function (usually NURBS) for both geometry description an [...]

The aim of this paper is the evaluation of an existing parallel, linear equation solver to solve largescale, sparse, non-symmetric systems of linear equations as a part o [...]

An application of Discrete shear gap (DSG) method to the isogeometric Timoshenko beam element with variable curvature is presented. A locking-removal capability of DSG is [...]

Numerical modelling using high performance computers brings in new opportunities in finite element computations. The contribution focuses on comparing the efficiency of d [...]

In this paper we introduce an approach for the solution of a coupled discrete and finite element method (CDEM) designed for effective implementation on a graphics process [...]

Motivated by casting of fresh concrete in reinforced concrete structures, we introduce a numerical model of a steady-state non-Newtonian fluid flow through a porous domai [...]

An isogeometric formulation of planar Timoshenko beams with variable curvature is presented. The Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) are used for both the geometry and [...]

Current development in computer hardware brings in new opportunities in numerical modelling. Computers with a single processing unit, where only one instruction can be pr [...]

The method for solving viscous incompressible flows, based on Glowinski, Pan,Hesla & Joseph (1998), is presented for the direct numerical simulation of viscous incomp [...]

Isogeometric analysis has been recently introduced as a viable alternative to the standard, polynomial-based finite element analysis. One of the fundamental performance [...]
