Meshless animation of fracturing solids [PDF]
We present a new meshless animation framework for elastic and plastic materials that fracture. Central to our method is a highly dynamic surface and volume sampling method that supports arbitrary crack initiation, propagation, and termination, while avoiding many of the stability problems of traditional mesh-based techniques.

Application of Generalized Finite Difference Method for Nonlinear Analysis of the Electrothermal Micro-Actuator [PDF]
In this work, the generalized finite difference method (GFDM), a popular meshless numerical method, is employed for predicting the thermal and mechanical behavior of an electrothermal micro-actuator. Based on the concept of GFDM and discretization on the

Meshless voronoi on the GPU [PDF]
We propose a GPU algorithm that computes a 3 D Voronoi diagram. Our algorithm is tailored for applications that solely make use of the geometry of the Voronoi cells, such as Lloyd's relaxation used in meshing, or some numerical schemes used in fluid simulations and astrophysics. Since these applications only require

Meshless geometric subdivision [PDF]
Point-based surface processing has developed into an attractive alternative to mesh-based processing tools for a number of geometric modeling applications. By working with point clouds directly, processing is based on the raw data and its underlying geometry rather than any arbitrary intermediate representations and generally artificial connectivity ...

The Saint-Venant equations are numerically solved to simulate free surface flows in one dimension. A Riemann solver is needed to compute the numerical flux for capturing shocks and flow discontinuities occurring in flow situations such as hydraulic jump,

3D numerical investigation of functionally graded concrete
In the design of engineering structures, concrete is assumed to have homogeneously mechanical properties. However, in reality, the concrete material is usually not uniform with respect to the height of structures because segregation mostly occurs during ...

An Efficient Technique for Solving Inhomogeneous Electromagnetic Inverse Scattering Problems [PDF]
The electromagnetic inverse scattering approach seeks to obtain the electric characteristics of a scatterer using information about the source and the scattered data.
