A simple approach to the numerical simulation with trimmed CAD surfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work a novel method for the analysis with trimmed CAD surfaces is presented. The method involves an additional mapping step and the attraction stems from its simplicity and ease of implementation into existing Finite Element (FEM) or Boundary Element (BEM) software. The method is first verified with classical test examples in structural mechanics. Then two practical applications are presented one using the FEM, the other the BEM, that show the applicability of the method.

From Computer Aided Design to wavelet BEM
It is known that the wavelet Galerkin scheme is an efficient method for the numerical solution of boundary integral equations. The parametric description of the given surface is required in order to create wavelets on manifolds. Technical surfaces generated by CAD tools are represented in this form. But often trimmed surfaces appear when thinking of the standard IGES format. An algorithm to par...
متن کاملAn improved isogeometric analysis method for trimmed geometries
Trimming techniques are efficient ways to generate complex geometries in Computer-Aided Design(CAD). In this paper, an improved isogeometric analysis(IGA) method for trimmed geometries is proposed. We will show that the proposed method reduces the numerical error of physical solution by 50% for simple trimmed geometries, and the condition number of stiffness matrix is also decreased. Furthermor...
متن کاملUntrimming: Precise conversion of trimmed-surfaces to tensor-product surfaces
Trimmed B-spline surfaces are very common in the geometric computer aided design (CAD) community due to their capability to represent complex shapes that cannot be modeled with ease using tensor product Bspline and NURBs surfaces. However, in many cases, handling trimmed-surfaces is far more complex than tensor-product (non-trimmed) surfaces. Many algorithms that operate on tensor-product surfa...

This paper tries to achieve a solution for problems that concern condensation around a flat plate, circular and elliptical tube in by numerical and analytical methods. Also, it calculates entropy production rates. At first, a problem was solved with mesh dynamic and rational assumptions; next it was compared with the numerical solution that the result had acceptable errors. An additional suppor...
متن کاملMesh Generation on Piecewise Riemannian Surfaces
We shall describe a mesh generation technique on a composite trimmed Riemannian surface. The edge size function is a fundamental entity in order to be able to apply the process of generalized Delaunay triangulation with respect to a Riemannian metric. Unfortunately, the edge size function is not known a-priori in general. We describe an approach which invokes the Laplace-Beltrami operator to de...
