Material-point independent variables are presented to illustrate the existence condition,or inexistence of the material points and their vicinity instead of elements or nodes in popular topology optimization methods. Topological variables field is constructed by moving least square approximation which is used as a shape function in the meshless method. Combined with finite element analyses,not only checkerboard patterns and mesh-dependence phenomena are overcome by this continuous and smooth topological variables field,but also the locations and numbers of topological variables can be arbitrary. Parameters including the number of quadrature points,scaling parameter,weight function and so on upon optimum topological configurations are discussed. Two classic topology optimization problems are solved successfully by the proposed method. The method is found robust and no numerical instabilities are found with proper parameters.展开更多

In the algorithm, a projection operator is used to tackle the nonlinear boundary inequality conditions. The Signorini problem is then reformulated as BIEs and the unknown boundary variables are approximated by the MLS approximations. Accordingly, only a nodal data structure on the boundary of a domain is required. The convergence of the algorithm is proven. Numerical examples are given to show the high convergence rate and high computational efficiency of the presented algorithm.展开更多

This method is simple and easy to implement, and the property of the approximation has no change compared with the original curve. A quantitative criterion for estimating the effect of parameterization is also built to quantitatively characterize the parameterization effect of the algorithms. As a result, the nearly arc-length parameterized curve has a smaller relative deviation using either the algorithm with point constraint at endpoints or the algorithm with point constraint plus the first derivative constraint at endpoints. Experiments show that after re-parameterization with our algorithms, the relative deviation will have at least a 20% reduction.展开更多

Based on the known nominal model of the DAS, this method firstly constructs an auxiliary system consisting of a difference equation and an algebraic equation, then, based on the relationship between the state deviation and the faults in the difference equation and the relationship between the algebraic variable deviation and the faults in algebraic equation, it identifies the faults on-line through least squares estimate. This method can not only detect, isolate and identify faults for DAS, but also give the upper bound of the error of fault identification. The simulation results indicate that it can give satisfactory diagnostic results for both abrupt and incipient faults.展开更多

The method used the moving least_squares approximation to interpolate the solution variables, and employed a local symmetric weak form. The present method was a truly meshless one as it did not need a finite element or boundary element mesh, either for purpose of interpolation of the solution, or for the integration of the energy. All integrals could be easily evaluated over regularly shaped domains (in general, spheres in three_dimensional problems) and their boundaries. The essential boundary conditions were enforced by the penalty method. Several numerical examples were presented to illustrate the implementation and performance of the present method. The numerical examples presented show that high accuracy can be achieved for arbitrary grid geometries for clamped and simply_supported edge conditions. No post processing procedure is required to computer the strain and stress, since the original solution from the present method, using the moving least squares approximation, is already smooth enough.展开更多

In the current paper, local integral equations are adopted for the nodes inside the domain and moving least square approximation (MLSA) for the nodes on the global boundary, thus singularities will not occur in the new al- gorithm. At the same time, approximation errors of boundary integrals are reduced significantly. As applications and numerical tests, Laplace equation and Helmholtz equation problems are considered and excellent numerical results are obtained. Furthermore, when solving the Helmholtz problems, the modified basis functions with wave solutions are adapted to replace the usually-used monomial basis functions. Numerical results show that this treatment is simple and effective and its application is promising in solutions for the wave propagation problem with high wave number.展开更多

Using the new 3D shell-like kinematics in analogy to the solid-shell concept of the finite element method, discretization is carried out by the nodes located on the upper and lower surfaces of the structures. The approximation of all unknown field variables is carried out by using the moving least squares (MLS) approximation scheme in the in-plane directions, while the linear interpolation is applied through the thickness direction. Thus, different boundary conditions are defined only using displacements and penalty method is used to enforce the essential boundary conditions. The constrained Galerkin weak form, which incorporates only dis- placement degrees of freedom (d.o.f.s), is derived. A modified 3D constitutive relationship is adopted in order to avoid or eliminate some self-locking effects. The numeric efficiency of the proposed meshless formulation is illustrated by the numeric examples.展开更多

The improved moving least-squares (IMLS) approx- imation is employed to construct the shape function, which uses an orthogonal function system with a weight function as the basis function. Compared with the conventional moving least-squares (MLS) approximation, the algebraic equation system in the IMLS approximation is not ill-conditioned, and can be solved directly without deriving the inverse matrix. Because there are fewer coefficients in the IMLS than in the MLS approximation, fewer nodes are selected in the IEFG method than in the element-free Galerkin method. Thus, the IEFG method has a higher computing speed. In the IEFG method, the Galerkin weak form is employed to obtain a dis- cretized system equation, and the penalty method is applied to impose the essential boundary condition. The traditional difference method for two-point boundary value problems is selected for the time discretization. As the wave equations and the boundary-initial conditions depend on time, the scal- ing parameter, number of nodes and the time step length are considered for the convergence study.展开更多

The texture measurements and the ODF calculations were performed for a multidirectionally cold rolled α-Ti alloy (TA7) sheet by the application of this software. It is shown that the rolling planes of most grains in the sheet tend to be parallel to (0001) with a deviation to the extent of 40° and is shown a predominance of the orientation zone containing (1016), while the rolling directions are, as a whole, uniformly distributed along all the directions over the rolling planes. Of all the texture components, (2¯117) [01¯10] is slightly stronger than the other.展开更多
