• We introduce hierarchical analysis-suitable T-splines (HASTS).
• We present a theoretical formulation of HASTS.
• We extend Bézier extraction to HASTS.
• HASTS are compared to local T-spline refinement algorithms.
• HASTS are utilized as a basis for adaptive isogeometric analysis.
In this paper hierarchical analysis-suitable T-splines (HASTS) are developed. The resulting spaces are a superset of both analysis-suitable T-splines and hierarchical B-splines. The additional flexibility provided by the hierarchy of T-spline spaces results in simple, highly localized refinement algorithms which can be utilized in a design or analysis context. A detailed theoretical formulation is presented. Bézier extraction is extended to HASTS simplifying the implementation of HASTS in existing finite element codes. The behavior of a simple HASTS refinement algorithm is compared to the local refinement algorithm for analysis-suitable T-splines demonstrating the superior efficiency and locality of the HASTS algorithm. Finally, HASTS are utilized as a basis for adaptive isogeometric analysis.
