Numerical solutions obtained by the Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method are presented for two dimensional steady-state heat conduction problems. The MLPG method is a truly meshless approach, and neither the nodal connectivity nor the background mesh is required for solving the initial-boundary-value problem. The penalty method is adopted to efficiently enforce the essential boundary co...

in this paper the meshless local petrov-galerkin (mlpg) method is implemented to study the buckling of isotropic cylindrical shells under axial load. displacement field equations, based on donnell and first order shear deformation theory, are taken into consideration. the set of governing equations of motion are numerically solved by the mlpg method in which according to a semi-inverse method, ...

We use two meshless local Petrov-Galerkin formulations, namely, the MLPG1 and the MLPG5, to analyze infinitesimal deformations of a homogeneous and isotropic thick elastic plate with a higher-order shear and normal deformable plate theory. It is found that the two MLPG formulations give results very close to those obtained by other researchers and also by the threedimensional analysis of the pr...

A graph G = (V, E) is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists a tree T , a positive edge-weight function w on T , and two non-negative real numbers dmin and dmax, dmin ≤ dmax, such that V coincides with the set of leaves of T , and there is an edge (u, v) ∈ E if and only if dmin ≤ dT,w(u, v) ≤ dmax where dT,w(u, v) is the sum of the weights of the edges on the unique path fr...

During the past few years, the idea of using meshless methods for numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) has received much attention throughout the scientific community, and remarkable progress has been achieved on meshless methods. The meshless local Petrov–Galerkin (MLPG) method is one of the ‘‘truly meshless’’ methods since it does not require any background integration ...
