Combining p-multigrid and Multigrid Reduction in Time methods to obtain a scalable solver for Isogeometric Analysis

The use of sequential time integration schemes becomes more and more the bottleneck within large-scale computations due to a stagnation of processor’s clock speeds. In this study, we combine the parallel-in-time Multigrid Reduction in Time method with a p-multigrid method to obtain a scalable solver specifically designed for Isogeometric...

The role of PDE-based parameterization techniques in gradient-based IGA shape optimization applications

This paper proposes a shape optimization algorithm based on the principles of Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) in which the parameterization of the geometry enters the problem formulation as an additional PDE-constraint. Inspired by the isoparametric principle of IGA, the parameterization and the governing state equation are treated using the same...

Towards accuracy and scalability: Combining Isogeometric Analysis with deflation to obtain scalable convergence for the Helmholtz equation

Finding fast yet accurate numerical solutions to the Helmholtz equation remains a challenging task. The pollution error (i.e. the discrepancy between the numerical and analytical wave number k) requires the mesh resolution to be kept fine enough to obtain accurate solutions. A recent study showed that the use of Isogeometric Analysis (IgA)...
