IGA (eBook)

Robin Bouclier is Associate Professor at INSA-Toulouse, France. His work on isogeometric analysis began during his PhD in Lyon. He has since brought this technology to the scientific landscape of Toulouse, in particular for solving optimization or inverse problems, such as those encountered in computational photomechanics. Jean-Charles Passieux is Professor in Computational Solid Mechanics at INSA-Toulouse and the Clément Ader Institute, France. His research focuses on developing numerical methods that integrate experimental data with mechanical models. He is the main developer of the opensource DIC library pyxel.
