Micro Abstract:
Isogeometric analysis fosters the integration of design and analysis by using the geometry description of the CAD system also for the numerical analysis. Hereby, the use of NURBS surfaces is common but entails the need for a coupling of non-conforming patches. The use of mortar methods allows a coupling which requires neither additional variables nor empirical parameters. In this contribution dual basis functions are used in order to obtain an accurate and efficient mortar method.
