Moving least squares for consistent field transfer strategy in non linear inelastic analysis

In this work, we propose a field transfer operator for remeshing carried out in the course of incremental analysis of a non linear inelastic structure. The proposed projection operator is based on diffuse approximation method.The key feature of such an operator to guarantee the conservation of relevant mechanical quantities such as dissipated energy but also stress admissibility, local equilibrium or kinematic compatibility ensures performances of the proposed field transfer in the continuation of the computation.
