Isogeometric analysis represents a paradigm shift in computational science by unifying the geometric representations used in design with the numerical basis functions employed in simulation.

This study develops forces equilibrium differential equations for the geometric modeling of 1D flexible objects with surface constraints. These second-order equations are an extension of the Cosserat ...

3D computer graphics (in contrast to 2D computer graphics) are graphics that utilize a three-dimensional representation of geometric data that is stored in the computer for the purposes of performing ...
