Functionally graded materials (FGMs) have been widely used as advanced materials characterized by variation in properties as the dimension varies. Studies on their physical responses under in-serve or external loading conditions are necessary. Especially, crack behavior analysis for these advanced material is one of the most essential in engineering. In this present, an extended meshfree radial point interpolation method (RPIM) is applied for calculating static and dynamic stress intensity factors (SIFs) in functionally graded materials. Typical advantages of RPIM shape function are the satisfactions of the Kronecker’s delta property and the high-order continuity. To assess the static and dynamic stress intensity factors, non-homogeneous form of interaction integral with the nonhomogeneous asymptotic near crack tip fields is used. Several benchmark examples in 2D crack problem are performed such as static and dynamic crack parameters calculation. The obtained results are compared with other existing solutions to illustrate the correction of the presented approach.

A meshless method based on radial point interpolation was developed as an effective tool for solving partial differential equations, and has been widely applied to a number of different problems. Besides its advantages, in this paper we introduce a new way to improve the speed and time calculations, by construction and evaluation the support domain. From the analysis of two-dimensional thin plates with different profiles, structured conventional isotropic materials and functional graded materials (FGM), the results are compared with the results had done before that indicates: on the one hand shows the accuracy when using the new way, on the other hand shows the time count as more economical
