Once again the problem was studied considering the two-dimensional analysis
and also the three-dimensional analysis, therefore several regular and irregular
nodal distributions, increasingly denser, were used to discretize the solid domain.
Nodal discretization examples are shown in Fig.
5.47
. As in previous studies, in
order to maintain a well-balance three-dimensional nodal distribution, the plate
thickness H depends on the inter-nodal average distance h indicated in Fig.
5.47
.
The problem was analysed considering the NNRPIM, the RPIM and the FEM.
The results regarding the displacement medium error, Eq. (
5.1
), are presented in
Fig.
5.48
for the two-dimensional analysis and the three-dimensional analysis.
