Numerical modeling and simulation of shape memory allows using the mesh-free method

This thesis represents the first instance in which the capability of mesh-free methods for the modeling of shape memory alloys (SMAs) is explored. Being a relatively recent computational tool, mesh-free source codes are not easily available compared with the easy access to various finite element sou...
