Abstract

Using the total Lagrange formulation, the reproducing kernel particle method (RKPM) for the geometrically nonlinear problem of the functionally graded materials (FGM) is proposed, and the corresponding formulae are derived. The displacement boundary condition is applied by the penalty method, and the numerical solution is solved by Newton–Raphson (N–R) iterative method. Furthermore, penalty factor, the control parameter of influence domain radius, loading step number and node distribution are discussed. Finally, the numerical examples illustrate that the RKPM for the geometrically nonlinear problem of the FGM is correct and effective.
