I'm Hugo Verhelst, a researcher in Computational Mechanics using Isogeometric Analysis.
🏫 Currently, I am affiliated to the Department of Civil Engineering and Architecture of the University of Pavia (Italy), in prof. Alessandro Reali's group.
🔬 My research focusses on...
- ... solid and shell mechanics with application to (post-)buckling instabilities with special interest in wrinkling,
- ... advanced spline constructions, especially aimed at adaptive refinement for nonlinear partial differential equations,
- ... phase-field modeling, with special focus in fracture.
💻 I am currently co-developing the following software libraries:
- Geometry + Simulation Modules (
gismo
): aC++
library for Isogeometric Analysis. gsKLShell
: A module for isogeometric Kirchhoff--Love shell analysis ingismo
gsStructuralAnalysis
: A module with structural analysis methods forgismo
gsUnstructuredSplines
: A module for unstructured spline constructions ingismo
Gismo.jl
: A Julia interface togismo
pygismo
: A Python interface togismo
💬 Feel free to reach out to me for questions and projects related to mechanics of shells and solids, spline modelling and other topics related to isogeometric analysis.
