Abstract

AbstractA novel meshfree model based on the standard element‐free Galerkin method incorporated moving Kriging interpolation (MK) is developed for free and forced vibration analysis of 2D structures. Instead of employing moving least square approximation (MLS), shape functions here are constructed by the MK method. Due to the satisfaction of the Kronecker delta function, the essential boundary conditions are thus imposed directly as the finite element method and no special techniques are required. Elastodynamic equations are transformed into a standard weak formulation and then discretized into a meshfree time‐dependent equation solved by the standard Newmark time integration method. Some numerical examples of stuctural problems in 2D are attempted, and it is found that the method is adequately accurate and stable for dynamic problems. (© 2011 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
