A meshless solution of nonlinear elastoplastic problems based on the RRKPM

Characterization and quantification of microplastics in indoor environments

“…MPs come from a wide range of sources, especially in aquatic and terrestrial environments. Over time, MPs continue to physically break down into smaller particles [ 6 , 7 ]; therefore, they are widely eaten by terrestrial and aquatic organisms [ 8 , 9 ]. MPs can be found in many environmental mediums, such as brine, freshwater, potable water, outlet water, soil, sludge, precipitate, and submarine sandstone.…”

Elastoplastic Analysis of Frame Structures Using Radial Point Interpolation Meshless Methods

“…Meshless methods have been applied in some elastoplastic simulations of structures. Zhou et al [17] used a centroid-enriched edge-based/face-based smoothed RPIM (CE-ES-RPIM and CE-FS-RPIM) to analyze elastoplastic benchmark problems in solid mechanics; the Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin method was applied in the thermo-elastoplastic analysis of thick functionally graded (FG) plates by Vaghefi et al [18]; the same author studied, for the first time, three-dimensional (3D) thermo-elastoplastic bending analysis of functionally graded sandwich plates subjected to combined thermal and mechanical loads, using a local radial point interpolation method (LRPIM) [19]; the RRKPM was used in the elastoplastic analysis of functionally graded materials by Liu et al [20]; the same meshless method was applied in the elastoplastic analyses of several solid mechanics problems by Gao et al [21]; a novel EFGM based on the improved complex variable moving least-squares (ICVMLS) approximation (called improved complex variable element-free Galerkin (ICVEFG)), was applied to two-dimensional large deformation elastoplasticity problems [22]; the EFGM was also used in finite deformation elasto-plastic modeling [23].…”
