Journal ArticleDOI

Meshfree method for large deformation analysis–a reproducing kernel particle approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the analysis of large displacement problems using the mesh-free approach was studied and meshless algorithms based on the reproducing kernel particle estimate were proposed and applied to the typical two-dimensional large displacement problem.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elasto‐plasticity revisited: numerical analysis via reproducing kernel particle method and parametric quadratic programming

TL;DR: In this article, a reproducing kernel particle algorithm based on the principles of parametric quadratic programming for elasto-plasticity is proposed to simplify the solution process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerical Modeling of Concrete Using a Partially Associative Plasticity Model

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a description and results from validation studies for the Karagozian & Case (K&C) concrete (KCC) model, which is primarily intended for modeling the dynamic responses of RC structural components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three-dimensional concrete impact and penetration simulations using the smoothed particle Galerkin method

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a non-residual penalty term from strain smoothing as a means of stabilizing the mesh-free nodal integration method under the Galerkin framework.
Journal ArticleDOI

Semi-Lagrangian reproducing kernel formulation and application to modeling earth moving operations

TL;DR: In this article, a Semi-Lagrangian Reproducing Kernel (RK) formulation is introduced for modeling earth-moving operations, and the analysis results show that the weak form integrated by a direct nodal integration leads to a tensile instability that is inconsistent with the material stability.
