Keywords: Coons, Gordon (transfinite), Barnhill, Bernstein-Bézier, B-splines, Rational Bézier, NURBS, Mathematical Physics, Potential and elasticity problems, Acoustics, Plate bending, 3D problems, CAD-based macroelement, Domain decomposition; Ritz-Galerkin, Integral equations (BEM), Collocation methods; Statics (steady-state) and Dynamics (time-dependent problems).

The abovementioned book is a résumé of author’s research work and contribution in this field for the last 35 years (since 1984). The book unifies and substantially extends the contents of 60 papers in the field of CAD-based macroelements, which are the precursors of the so-called NURBS-based IsoGeometric Analysis (IGA).
