Abstract
We investigate Sobolev regularity of bivariate functions obtained in Isogeometric Analysis when using geometry maps that are degenerate in the sense that the first partial derivatives vanish at isolated points. In particular, we show how the known \(C^1\)-conditions for D-patches have to be tightened to guarantee square integrability of second partial derivatives, as required when computing finite element approximations of elliptic fourth order PDEs like the biharmonic equation.
期刊介绍:
Advances in Computational Mathematics publishes high quality, accessible and original articles at the forefront of computational and applied mathematics, with a clear potential for impact across the sciences. The journal emphasizes three core areas: approximation theory and computational geometry; numerical analysis, modelling and simulation; imaging, signal processing and data analysis.
This journal welcomes papers that are accessible to a broad audience in the mathematical sciences and that show either an advance in computational methodology or a novel scientific application area, or both. Methods papers should rely on rigorous analysis and/or convincing numerical studies.
