A level set based topological shape optimization using extended B-spline basis functions is developed for steady state heat conduction problems. The only inside of complicated domain is identified by the level set functions and taken into account in computation. The solution of Hamilton-Jacobi equation leads to an optimal shape according to the normal velocity field determined from the sensitivity analysis, minimizing a thermal compliance while satisfying a volume constraint. To obtain exact shape sensitivity, the precise normal and curvature of geometry need to be determined using the level set and B-spline basis functions. The nucleation of holes is possible whenever and wherever necessary during the optimization using a topological derivative concept.

확장 B-스플라인 기저함수(extended B-spline basis functions)을 이용한 레벨셋 기반의 위상 형상 최적설계 기법을 정상 상태의 열전도 문제에 대하여 개발하였다. 본 해석법은 레벨셋으로 결정된 영역 안쪽만 고려하여 해석을 수행하게 되므로 열전달 문제에서 생길 수 있는 영역 바깥부분 영향을 제거할 수 있다. 설계민감도 해석으로부터 결정되는 법선속도를 활용하여 헤밀턴-자코비 방정식의 해를 구하게 되며, 주어진 체적조건 하에서 열 컴플라이언스(thermal compliance)가 최소가 되는 방향으로 최적의 형상을 결정할 수 있다. 형상 설계민감도를 정확하게 얻기 위해서는 레벨셋 함수와 B-스플라인 함수를 이용하여 수직 단위 벡터와 형상의 곡률을 정확히 결정하며, 위상 설계민감도를 통해 최적화과정 동안 필요한 위치와 시점에서 위상의 변화를 주는 홀을 쉽게 생성할 수 있다.

We make use of cubic B-spline interpolation function in two cases: heat conduction and fluid flow problems. Cubic B-spline test function is employed because it is superior to approximation of linear and non-linear problems. We investigated the accuracy of the numerical formulation and focused on the position of the breakpoints within the computational domain. When the domain is divided by partitions of equal space, the results show poor accuracy. For the case of a heat conduction problem this partition can not reflect the temperature gradient which is rapidly changed near the wall. To correct the problem, we have more grid points near the wall or the region which has a rapid change of variables. When we applied the unequally spaced breakpoints, the results show high accuracy. Based on the comparison of the linear problem, we extended to the highly non-linear fluid flow problems.

A multi-span bridge has the peak value of resultant girder moment or membrane stress at the interior support. In this paper, the spline finite strip method (FSM) is modified to obtain the more appropriate solution at the interior support where the peak values of solution exist. The modification has been achieved by expressing the shape function with non-periodic B-splines which have multiple knots at the boundary. The modified B-splines have the useful feature for interpolating the curve with sudden change in curvature. Moreover, the modified spline FSM is very efficient in analyzing multi-span box girder bridges, since a bridge can be modeled by an assembly of strips extended along the entire bridge length. Numerical examples of the bridge analysis have been performed to verify the efficiency and accuracy of the new spline FSM.

Scientific volume visualization addresses the representation, manipulation, and rendering of volumetric data sets, providing mechanisms for looking closely into structures and understanding their complexity and dynamics. In the past several years, a tremendous amount of research and development has been directed toward algorithms and data modeling methods for a scientific data visualization. But there has been very little work on developing a mathematical volume model that feeds this visualization. Especially, in flow visualization, the volume model has long been required as a guidance to display the very large amounts of data resulting from numerical simulations. In this paper, we focus on the mathematical representation of volumetric data sets and the method of extracting meaningful information from the derived volume model. For this purpose, a B-spline volume is extended to a high dimensional trivariate model which is called as a flow visualization model in this paper. Two three-dimensional examples are presented to demonstrate the capabilities of this model.

The paper is devoted to problem of spline approximation. A new method of nodes location for curves and surfaces computer construction in multidimensional spaces by means of B-splines is presented. The criteria are which links a square-mean error caused by high frequency spline distortions and approximation intervals is determined and necessary theorem is proved. In this method use a theory of entire multidimensional spectra and may be extended for the spaces of three, four and more variables. Future work: application area such as digital contents like animation, game graphic.

Calculation of intersection points by two curves is fundamental to computer aided geometric design. Bezier clipping is one of the well-known curve intersection algorithms. However, this algorithm is only applicable to Bezier curve representation. Therefore, the NURBS curves that can represent free from curves and conics must be decomposed into constituent Bezier curves to find the intersections using Bezier clipping. And the respective pairs of decomposed Bezier curves are considered to find the intersection points so that the computational overhead increases very sharply. In this study, extended Bezier clipping which uses the linear precision of B-spline curve and Grevill's abscissa can find the intersection points of two NURBS curves without initial decomposition. Especially the extended algorithm is more efficient than Bezier clipping when the number of intersection points is small and the curves are composed of many Bezier curve segments.

For given discrete derivative data in a rectangular re-gion we propose a method to generate an approximated surface which fits the given derivative data in the region and extends smoothly to a sufficiently large rectangular region. Such an extension in nec-essary in the generation of the surface in NC(numerical control) ma-chine.

본 논문에서는 삼각 메쉬에 관한 보다 안정되고 직관적인 새로운 다중해상도 메쉬 편집 기술을 제안한다. 본 논문의 기본 아이디어는 3차원 메쉬 상에서 편집 영역을 선택하여 2차원 영역으로 임베딩을 하는 과정과 사용자에 의해서 정의되는 편집 정보를 보간하는 곡면을 생성하는 과정으로 이루어지며, 이를 통해 편집 영역 안에 있는 다른 꼭지점의 변위 정보를 곡면 함수값으로부터 생성한다. 본 논문에서 사용되는 임베딩 방법은 확장 볼록 조합 매개변수화 방법으로서 임베딩된 2차원 메쉬의 삼각형들은 자기 교차를 하지 않으며 또한 볼록 조합 계수를 정의할 때 모양 유지 방법을 사용하기 때문에 3차원 삼각형의 모양을 제대로 유지할 수 있다. 또한 편집 결과의 영역을 조절할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 다단계 B-스플라인 곡면을 이용하여, 상호작용적이며 직관적이어서 보다 안정되고 효율적인 메쉬 편집 결과를 얻을 수 있다.
