The purpose of this talk is to explore the new generation of
computational mechanics procedures based on modern developments in
computational geometry. The emphasis will be on the Isogeometric
approach in which basis functions generated from NURBS (Non-Uniform
Rational B-Splines) and T-Splines are employed to construct an exact
geometric model.
It is argued that Isogeometric Analysis is a viable alternative to
standard, polynomial-based, finite element analysis and possesses many
advantages.
