Abstract:In this paper we propose an algorithm that computes a low cardinality PItype (Positive weights and Interior nodes) algebraic cubature rule of degree n, with at most (n + 1)(n + 2)/2 nodes, over curvilinear polygons defined by piecewise rational functions. Typical examples are domains whose boundary is defined piecewise by NURBS curves or by composite Bezier curves. The key tools are a relevant but overlooked theorem of 1976 by Wilhelmsen on Tchakaloff sets, a specific in-domain algorithm for such curvilinear p… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
