- The Material Point Method (MPM) is an exciting development in the computational modelling of problems with very large deformations (e.g. landslides, forming problems). This paper presents for the first time a method to allow a whole new range of displacement boundary conditions to be applied in the MPM, opening up the method to many problems that it was unable to tackle prior to this paper. It removes the major constraint on the MPM up to this paper where the grid boundaries and domain boundaries had to be coincident.
