In this paper, we propose a Galerkin-based smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) formulation with moving least-squares meshless approximation, applied to solid mechanics and large deformation. Our method is truly meshless and based on Lagrangian kernel formulation and stabilized nodal integration. The performance of the methodology proposed is tested through various simulations, demonstrating the attractive ability of particle methods to handle severe distortions and complex phenomena.

Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH)[1] is extended to the elastic-plastic large deformation analysis of metals and the hyper-elastic analysis of rubbers. The elastic-plastic analysis theory and the large deformation theory used in this study are fundamentally similar to those of FEM however the theories are applied at the particle points within a smoothing radius in SPH models. In this study the volume constant condition is imposed on the plastic deformation process using a pressure equation given by the particle density condition in a unit volume. Test problems show that the large deformation analysis by SPH leads to good stability and accuracy comparing with FEM results.

This paper presents three-dimensional computational simulations of the hypervelocity impact (HVI) using standard smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). The classic Taylor-Bar-Impact test is revisited with the focus on the variation of results corresponding to the different model parameters in the SPH implementation. The second example involves both normal and oblique HVIs of a sphere on the thin plate, producing large deformation of structures. Based on original experimental results and some numerical results reported previously, some comparisons are also made, in the hope of providing informative data on appropriate SPH implementation options for the software being developed. The results obtained show that the current SPH procedure is well suited for the HVI problems.
