Abstract

Geomiso TNL is a new both on-premises and cloud-based software, which delivers isogeometric analysis (IGA) and 3D design with splines. It combines IGA and cloud computing, one of the fastest growing fields in IT industry. The combination of cloud computing and advanced refinement techniques constitutes a real game changer in CAD/CAE fields. Cloud-based IGA represents the future of product engineering, soon to become an industry standard. Automatic mesh refinement has not been widely adopted in industry, because it requires access to the exact geometry. This hybrid program achieves seamless and automatic communication with CAD, thus mesh refinement utilizes the exact geometry, while cloud computing enables users to execute large-scale simulation experiments without the need for dedicated hardware. The recently developed cloud-based platform www.geomiso.cloud is introduced to help engineers and industries make effective use of inelastic static isogeometric analysis and design with advanced spline techniques. It is argued that Geomiso TNL is a new, more efficient, alternative to FEA software packages. This is the first time ever such a cloud-based program has been developed.
