The phrase "Isogeometric analysis" tends to refer to a combination of NURBS-as-basis-functions with NURBS-as-mapping-functions. I could take or leave the former, but I'd *love* for us to get some support for the latter. Our combination of many-options-as-basis-functions and lagrange-or-die-as-mapping-functions is obviously pretty one-sided. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
