In this paper, we present two software packages, HexGen and Hex2Spline, that seamlessly integrate geometry design with isogeometric analysis (IGA) in LS-DYNA. Given a boundary representation of a solid model, HexGen creates a hexahedral mesh by utilizing a semi-automatic polycube-based mesh generation method. Hex2Spline takes the output hexahedral mesh from HexGen as the input control mesh and constructs volumetric truncated hierarchical splines. Through B{e}zier extraction, Hex2Spline transfers spline information to LS-DYNA and performs IGA therein. We explain the underlying algorithms in each software package and use a rod model to explain how to run the software. We also apply our software to several other complex models to test its robustness. Our goal is to provide a robust volumetric modeling tool and thus expand the boundary of IGA to volume-based industrial applications.
In this paper, we extend our earlier polycube-based all-hexahedral mesh generation method to hexahedral-dominant mesh generation, and present the HexDom software package. Given the boundary representation of a solid model, HexDom creates a hex-domina
Due to the fractal nature of the domain geometry in geophysical flow simulations, a completely accurate description of the domain in terms of a computational mesh is frequently deemed infeasible. Shoreline and bathymetry simplification methods are us
This work proposes a rigorous and practical algorithm for generating meromorphic quartic differentials for the purpose of quad-mesh generation. The work is based on the Abel-Jacobi theory of algebraic curve. The algorithm pipeline can be summarized a
This work discovers the equivalence relation between quadrilateral meshes and meromorphic quartic. Each quad-mesh induces a conformal structure of the surface, and a meromorphic differential, where the configuration of singular vertices correspond to
A piecewise Chebyshevian spline space is good for design when it possesses a B-spline basis and this property is preserved under arbitrary knot insertion. The interest in piecewise Chebyshevian spline spaces that are good for design is justified by t
