A meshless method is developed, based on subdomain variational formulations and a local Petrov-Galerkin approximation, along with the locking-free formulation, for the analysis of bending of a thick beam. The local point interpolation method is employed to construct both trial and test functions. Th
## Abstract The meshless elementβfree Galerkin (EFG) method is extended to allow computation of the limit load of plates. A kinematic formulation that involves approximating the displacement field using the moving leastβsquares technique is developed. Only one displacement variable is required for
This work represents the initial step toward the development of an efficient computational framework that can be used to study the response and/or failure of laminated composite plates under a variety of loading conditions, including complex, severe, static and dynamic loads. The proposed finite ele
A mixed variational formulation based upon Hamilton's principle and Lagrange's multipliers is generally obtained to deduce the governing equations of laminated composite structures. The additional work, as a function of stresses only, is introduced in the variational statement by using Legendre's tr
