p-multigrid methods and their comparison to h-multigrid methods within Isogeometric Analysis

Over the years, Isogeometric Analysis has shown to be a successful alternative to the Finite Element Method (FEM). However, solving the resulting linear systems of equations efficiently remains a challenging task. In this paper, we consider a p-multigrid method, in which coarsening is applied in the spline degree p instead of the mesh width h...

On an improved PDE-based elliptic parameterization method for isogeometric analysis using preconditioned Anderson acceleration

Constructing an analysis-suitable parameterization for the computational domain from its boundary representation plays a crucial role in the isogeometric design-through-analysis pipeline. PDE-based elliptic grid generation is an effective method for generating high-quality parameterizations with rapid convergence properties for the planar...
