Abstract The material point method (MPM) has demonstrated itself as a computationally effective particle for solving solid mechanics problems involving large deformations and/or fragmentation of structures, which are sometimes problematic finite element methods (FEMs). However, similar to most that employ mixed Lagrangian (particle) and Eulerian strategies, analysis the is not straightforward. lack an framework MPM, found in FEMs, makes it challenging explain anomalies its employment...

Abstract Modern PDE solvers written for time‐dependent problems increasingly employ adaptive unstructured meshes (Flaherty et al. , 1989) in order to both increase efficiency and control the numerical error. If a distributed memory parallel computer is be used, there arises significant problem of dividing domain equally amongst processors whilst minimising inter‐subdomain dependencies. A number graph‐based algorithms have recently been proposed steady‐state calculations. The paper considers...
