Traditionally discontinuous deformation analysis(DDA) method adopts linear displacement mode
which has many efects. To get exact stress field of the block
some improvements are developed including: directly using higher order polynomial as displacement function
sub-block division
and adopting the block-finite-element displacement mode
etc.; but these are not efficient in practice. It is suggested here to introduce meshfree interpolation mode
namely natural neighbor interpolation of natural element method
which has interpolation property
very easy to impose exactly essential boundary condition or material continuity condition; moreover it depends on no meshes and has good calculation precision as well as efficiency. Based on this mode
further analysis can be done on larger block bending or crack exploration etc to overcome defects of the linear mode as well as other modes.
