A Material Point Method Formulation for Plasticity
Abstract
This paper discusses a general formulation of the material point method in the context of additive decomposition rate-independent plasticity. The process of generating the weak form shows that volume integration over deforming particles can be major source of error in the MPM method. Several useful identities and other results are derived in the appendix.
