33. Isogeometric analysis with geometrically continuous functions on two-patch geometriesMario Kapl, Vito Vitrih, Bert Jüttler, Katharina Birner, 2015, original scientific article Abstract: We study the linear space of Cs-smooth isogeometric functions defined on a multi-patch domain % % R2. We show that the construction of these functions is closely related to the concept of geometric continuity of surfaces, which has originated in geometric design. More precisely, the Cs-smoothness of isogeometric functions is found to be equivalent to geometric smoothness of the same order (Gs-smoothness) of their graph surfaces. This motivates us to call them Cs-smooth geometrically continuous isogeometric functions. We present a general framework to construct a basis and explore potential applications in isogeometric analysis. The space of C1-smooth geometrically continuous isogeometric functions on bilinearly parameterized two-patch domains is analyzed in more detail. Numerical experiments with bicubic and biquartic functions for performing L2 approximation and for solving Poisson%s equation and the biharmonic equation on two-patch geometries are presented and indicate optimal rates of convergence.

34. Parametric curves with Pythagorean binormalsJernej Kozak, Marjetka Knez, Vito Vitrih, 2015, original scientific article Abstract: In this paper, a class of rational spatial curves that have a rational binormal is introduced . Such curves (called PB curves) play an important role in the derivation of rational rotation-minimizing osculating frames. The PB curve construction proposed is based upon the dual curve representation and the Euler-Rodrigues frame obtained from quaternion polynomials. The construction significantly simplifies if the curve is a polynomial one. Further, polynomial PB curves of the degree % 7 and rational PB curves of the degree % 6 that possess rational rotation-minimizing osculating frames are derived, and it is shown that no lower degree curves, constructed from quadratic quaternion polynomials, with such a property exist.

35. Construction of G[sup]3 rational motion of degree eightKarla Ferjančič, Marjetka Knez, Vito Vitrih, 2015, original scientific article Abstract: The paper presents a construction of a rigid body motion with point trajectories being rational spline curves of degree eight joining together with ▫$G^3$▫ smoothness. The motion is determined through interpolation of positions and derivative data up to order three in the geometric sense. Nonlinearity in the spherical part of construction results in a single univariate quartic equation which yields solutions in a closed form. Sufficient conditions on the regions for the curvature data are derived, implying the existence of a real admissible solution. The algorithm how to choose appropriate data is proposed too. The theoretical results are substantiated with numerical examples.

40. Lattices on tetrahedral partitionsVito Vitrih, 2008, published scientific conference contribution Abstract: In this paper, four-pencil lattices on tetrahedral partitions are studied. Theexplicit representation of a lattice, based upon barycentric coordinates, enables us to extend the lattice from a single tetrahedron to a tetrahedral partition. It is shown that the number of degrees of freedom is equal to the number of vertices of the tetrahedral partition. The proof is based on a lattice split approach.
