Central to the method is how to use the principle of virtual forces equilibrium system connected with the principle of virtual velocity to solve the velocity analysis of a mechanism. The method is accurate in principle and much simpler than the conventional method. It can be applied to both planar and spatial mechanisms. For brevity an example of a spatial mechanism only is presented.展开更多

In the modified ELM, equilibrium over the lines on the natural boundary is satisfied as Neumann boundary condition equations. In other words, the natural boundary conditions are satisfied naturally by using the weak formulation. The performance of the modified version of the ELM is studied for collocation methods based on two different ways to construct meshless shape functions： moving least squares approximation and radial basis point interpolation. Numerical examples of two-dimensional free and forced vibration analyses show that by using the modified ELM, more stable and accurate results would be obtained in comparison with the direct collocation method.展开更多
