FGM activities in Japan

TL;DR: The concept of functionally graded materials (FGMs) was proposed in 1984 by materials scientists in the Sendai area as a means of preparing thermal barrier materials as discussed by the authors, which results in gradients in such properties as mechanical strength and thermal conductivity.

Cracking particles: A simplified meshfree method for arbitrary evolving cracks

TL;DR: A new approach for modelling discrete cracks in meshfree methods is described, in which the crack can be arbitrarily oriented, but its growth is represented discretely by activation of crack surfaces at individual particles, so no representation of the crack's topology is needed.

A stabilized conforming nodal integration for Galerkin mesh-free methods

TL;DR: In this paper, a strain smoothing stabilization for nodal integration is proposed to eliminate spatial instability in nodal integrations, where an integration constraint is introduced as a necessary condition for a linear exactness in the mesh-free Galerkin approximation.
