It has been 25 years since Sulsky and her coworkers developed the first version of the
material point method (MPM): a quasi particle method to solve continuum mechanics …

Traditional geotechnical analyses for landslides involve failure prediction (ie onset of failure)
and the design of structures that can safely withstand the applied loads. The analyses …

This paper presents the formulation and implementation of a numerical procedure based on
material point method (MPM) to solve fully coupled dynamic problems that undergo large …

This practical guide provides the best introduction to large deformation material point
method (MPM) simulations for geotechnical engineering. It provides the basic theory …

As one of the arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian methods, the material point method (MPM)
owns intrinsic advantages in simulation of large deformation problems by combining the …

The paper describes a three-phase single-point material point method formulation of
coupled flow (water and air) for hydro-mechanical analysis of geotechnical problems …

Many problems in geotechnical engineering involve large movements or rotations,
