Abstract:
The reproducing kernel particle method (RKPM) is a typical meshless method based on kernel function simulation. Based on the interpolating shape function of RKPM and Mindlin plate theory, the governing equations of RKPM to the deflection solution of Mindlin plate bending on a Winkler elastic soil foundation are established. Numerical results indicate that the above method and the corresponding program are effective and accurate.
