If I get this, which I may not, it's fea using splines instead of straight edges. Very clever stuff, and some properly hard math. Impressed!

- contravariant 4y agoGoing by the name 'isogeometric analysis' is is probably analysis on level-sets, not sure if splines are the easiest to translate to level sets but the effect is probably very similar.
- brutusborn 4y agoI wasn’t sure what this meant so I found this paper that seems to give a good overview of what isogeometric analysis means. https://reader.elsevier.com/reader/sd/pii/S0045782505005451?token=75BF66B2E21066B2F276C7430E013B418DB26D0BA791AF0ADFA13CDA58FF8A016CAD1B5AC4F71914229475B80F7C882A&originRegion=us-east-1&originCreation=20221228014227 https://reader.elsevier.com/reader/sd/pii/S0045782505005451?...
- mkoubaa 4y agoNurbs, or non-uniform rational b-splines, to be specific
- bgoated01 4y agoIt's a generalization of B-splines, called U-splines (splines over Unstructured meshes). If anyone is interested in the math behind it on the level of a journal article, the last two links here go into the technology in detail: https://docs.coreform.com/latest/html/coreform-public/index.html https://docs.coreform.com/latest/html/coreform-public/index.... (Disclaimer: I work for Coreform, developing U-splines)
