The classical radial point interpolation method (RPIM) is a powerful meshfree numerical technique for engineering computation. In the original RPIM, moving support domain quadrature usually employed field function approximation, but local supports of nodal shape functions are always not in alignment with integration cells constructed integration. This misalignment can result additional error an...

Fabrication, characterization and application of micro-/nano-rods/wires are among the hottest topics in materials science and applied physics. Micro-/nano-rod-based structures and devices are developed for a wide-ranging use in various fields of micro-/nanoscience (e.g. biology, electronics, medicine, optics, optoelectronics, photonics and sensors). It is well known that the structure and prope...
