Meshless formulation for shear-lockling free bending elements
W. Kanok-Nukulchai, W.J. Barry and K. Saran-Yasoontorn(Thailand)

 
Abstract
    An improved version of the Element-free Galerkin method (EFGM) is presented here for
addressing the problem of transverse shear locking in shear-deformable beams with a high length over
thickness ratio. Based upon Timoshenko
 
Key Words
