ABSTRACT: The local Petrov-Galerkin methods (MLPG) have attracted much attention
due to their great flexibility in dealing with numerical model in elasticity problems.
It is derived from the local weak form (WF) of the equilibrium equations and by
inducting the moving last square approach for trial and test functions in (WF) is
discussed over local sub-domain. In this paper, we studied the effect of the configuration
parameters of the size of the support or quadrature domain, and the effect of the
size of the cells with nodes distribution number on the accuracy of the methods.
It also presents a comparison of the results for the Shear stress, the deflections
and the error in energy.
