IGA-based Multi-Index Stochastic Collocation for random PDEs on arbitrary domains
This paper proposes an extension of the Multi-Index Stochastic Collocation
(MISC) method for forward uncertainty quantification (UQ) problems in
computational domains of shape other than a square or cube, by exploiting
isogeometric analysis (IGA) techniques. Introducing IGA solvers to the MISC
algorithm is very natural since they are tensor-based PDE solvers, which are
precisely what is required by the MISC machinery. Moreover, the
combination-technique formulation of MISC allows the straight-forward reuse of
existing implementations of IGA solvers. We present numerical results to
showcase the effectiveness of the proposed approach.Comment: version 3, version after revisio
The INTERNODES method for the treatment of non-conforming multipatch geometries in Isogeometric Analysis
In this paper we apply the INTERNODES method to solve second order elliptic
problems discretized by Isogeometric Analysis methods on non-conforming
multiple patches in 2D and 3D geometries. INTERNODES is an interpolation-based
method that, on each interface of the configuration, exploits two independent
interpolation operators to enforce the continuity of the traces and of the
normal derivatives. INTERNODES supports non-conformity on NURBS spaces as well
as on geometries. We specify how to set up the interpolation matrices on
non-conforming interfaces, how to enforce the continuity of the normal
derivatives and we give special attention to implementation aspects. The
numerical results show that INTERNODES exhibits optimal convergence rate with
respect to the mesh size of the NURBS spaces an that it is robust with respect
to jumping coefficients.Comment: Accepted for publication in Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and
