DESCRIPTION:This project aims at the development of analysis-suitable subd
 ivision solids. In the first part our experience with subdivision surfaces
  already obtained in previous projects is increased by the consideration o
 f a heat conductivity problem in a three-dimensional object with the bound
 ary element method (BEM). In the second part of the project\, we will focu
 s on the development of trivariate subdivision splines. When used to creat
 e solid meshes\, we can create a generally applicable workflow for analyzi
 ng solid objects\, using Galerkin-based isogeometric analysis. For the pur
 pose of verification\, some of these results can then be compared to the B
 EM approach considered in the first part of the project. Additionally\, we
  will take a look at adaptive refinement. Because of the existing possibil
 ities regarding solid meshing and refinement\, our initial preference goes
  to schemes based on triangles and tetrahedrons (i.e. three-directional bo
 x-spline schemes and their trivariate extensions). Another option would be
  to look into schemes based on quadrilaterals and hexahedrons\, combined w
 ith hierarchical refinement.\n\nPieter Barendrecht is currently working on
  his master's thesis in the department of Mechanical Engineering at Eindho
 ven University of Technology.
