Abstract Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) was introduced by Thomas Hughes et al. with the aim of integrating CAD and FEA. IGA methods can be categorized into two groups: Conforming IGA, such as T-spline based IGA, and non-conforming IGA, such as immersed or embedded IGA. Embedded or immersed IGA methods do not require the construction of analysis-aware geometry, unlike conforming IGA methods such as T-spline based IGA. However, the Galerkin method does not directly apply to these methods, making it challenging for immersed IGA methods to impose strong Dirichlet boundary conditions directly. Nitsche's method is a popular approach… More >
