Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) Mixed Collocation Method For Elasticity Problems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) mixed collocation method is proposed in this paper, for solving elasticity problems. In the present MLPG approach, the mixed scheme is applied to interpolate the displacements and stresses independently, as in the MLPG finite volume method. To improve the efficiency, the local weak form is established at the nodal points, for the stresses, by using the collocation method. The traction boundary conditions are also imposed into the stress equations directly. It becomes very simple and straightforward to impose various boundary conditions, especially for the high-order PDEs. Numerical examples show that the proposed MLPG mixed collocation method possesses a stable convergence rate, and is more efficient than the other MLPG implementations, including the MLPG finite volume method. keyword: MLPG, Meshless, Mixed method, Collocation

Topology-optimization of Structures Based on the MLPG Mixed Collocation Method
The Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) “mixed collocation” method is applied to the problem of topology-optimization of elastic structures. In this paper, the topic of compliance minimization of elastic structures is pursued, and nodal design variables which represent nodal volume fractions at discretized nodes are adopted. A so-called nodal sensitivity filter is employed, to prevent the phe...
