Abstract:Abstract. In this paper we describe a three-dimensional Isogeometric BEM in the time domain based on the T-spline and Non Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) basis to study the free surface behavior. Traditionally, the Lagrange polynomials have been used to discretize the geometry and the BEMs variables. The Lagrange basis are discontinues across the elements although the physical variables are continuous. In dynamics problems with high mesh distortions this approach can produce numerical instabilities that can… Show more
