PHC Alliance

• Program: PHC Alliance

• Project title: High-order methods for computational design and data-driven engineering

• Duration: 01/2020–12/2021

• Coordinator: Angelos Mantzaflaris

• Other partners: Swansea University, UK

• Abstract: The aim of this project is to develop a mathematical framework for the integration of geometric modeling and simulation using spline-based finite elements of high degree of smoothness. High-order methods are known to provide a robust and efficient methodology to tackle complex challenges in multi-physics simulations, shape optimization, and the analysis of large-scale datasets arising in data-driven engineering and design. However, the analysis and design of high-order methods is a daunting task requiring a concurrent effort from diverse fields such as applied algebraic geometry, approximation theory and splines, topological data analysis, and computational mathematics. Our strategic vision is to create a research team combining a uniquely broad research expertise in these areas by establishing a link between the team AROMATH at Inria Sophia-Antipolis and Swansea University.
