Popis: This paper describes a new efficient approach based on the concept of reduced basis for large deformation analysis. The domain problem is discretized using the meshfree particle radial point interpolation method (RPIM), which inherently possesses the Kronecker’s delta property. Meshless numerical integration is evaluated by the Cartesian transformation method (CTM), which enhances the performance of the RPIM. In addition, we also introduce a new approach to further improve the capability of the current CTM in evaluation of numerical integration for problems with complex geometries, i.e., by incorporation of the non-uniform rational B-splines function (NURBS) into the CTM. The emphasis of the paper is on the nonlinear nature of the large deformation problems, which are often solved by an iterative scheme. Conventional Newton–Raphson technique usually requires high cost due to the fact that several load steps are usually performed, and multiple iterations are needed in each load step. This low computational efficiency can be overcome, as proposed in this work, by using the so-called combined approximation, which approximates the full-size solution by a set of reduced bases. In other words, reduction of the problem size can be obtained, leading to reduction of the computational time, while accuracy is almost preserved.
