Recent developments of meshfree and particle methods and their applications in applied
mechanics are surveyed. Three major methodologies have been reviewed. First, smoothed …

Meshfree Particle Methods is a comprehensive and systematic exposition of particle
methods, meshfree Galerkin and partitition of unity methods, molecular dynamics methods …

Many arenas of research are rapidly advancing due to a combined effort between
engineering and science. In some cases, fields of research that were stagnating under the …

Nanotechnology is a progressive research and development topic with large amounts of
venture capital and government funding being invested worldwide. Nano mechanics, in …

In this paper, we present all necessary generalisations to extend the bridging scale, a finite-
temperature multiple scale method which couples molecular dynamics (MD) and finite …

A bridging multi-scale method is proposed for the analysis of a class of localization problems
in which the micropolar-continuum model is used to describe the localized deformation and …

We present a method to numerically calculate a non‐reflecting boundary condition which is
applicable to atomistic, continuum and coupled multiscale atomistic/continuum simulations …

This paper presents a systematic approach to treating the interfaces between the localized
(fine grain) and peripheral (coarse grain) domains in atomic scale simulations of crystalline …

A method to derive governing equations and elastic-plastic constitutive relations for the
micropolar continuum model is proposed. Averaging procedures are operated over a …

A method is proposed to analyze the effective moduli of periodically defective beam lattices
by using the Lattice Green's Functions (LGF). The LGF of beam lattices is built to calculate …
