Tuned hybrid nonuniform subdivision surfaces with optimal convergence rates

This article presents an enhanced version of our previous work, hybrid nonuniform subdivision (HNUS) surfaces, to achieve optimal convergence rates in isogeometric analysis (IGA). We introduce a parameter () to control the rate of shrinkage of irregular regions, so the method is called tuned hybrid nonuniform subdivision (tHNUS). Thus, HUNS is a special case of tHNUS when . While introducing in hybrid subdivision significantly complicates the...
