A meshfree radial point interpolation method (RPIM) for three-dimensional solids
نویسندگان
چکیده
A meshfree radial point interpolation method (RPIM) is developed for stress analysis of threedimensional (3D) solids, based on the Galerkin weak form formulation using 3D meshfree shape functions constructed using radial basis functions (RBFs). As the RPIM shape functions have the Kronecker delta functions property, essential boundary conditions can be enforced as easily as in the finite element method (FEM). Numerical examples of 3D solids are presented to verify validity and accuracy of the present RPIM method, and intensive numerical study has been conducted to investigate the effects of some important parameters. It is demonstrated that the present meshfree RPIM is robust, stable, and reliable for stress analysis of 3D solids.

The cable equation is one the most fundamental mathematical models in the neuroscience, which describes the electro-diffusion of ions in denderits. New findings indicate that the standard cable equation is inadequate for describing the process of electro-diffusion of ions. So, recently, the cable model has been modified based on the theory of fractional calculus. In this paper, the two dimensio...

In this paper, the linearly conforming enriched radial basis point interpolation method is implemented for the elasto-plastic analysis of discontinuous medium. The linear conformability of the method is satisfied by the application of stabilized nodal integration and the enrichment of radial basis functions is achieved by the addition of linear polynomial terms. To implement the method for the ...

This paper describes a new topology optimization (TO) technique based on meshless method to evolve two-dimensional truss structures. The meshless method has been considered as a very attractive computational technique since it does not need any mesh generation process during the analysis. It has been gradually and widely used in many engineering disciplines and a particular weak point such as t...
