Description:
Meshfree methods, particle methods, and generalized finite
element methods have witnessed substantial development
since the mid 1990s. The growing interest in these methods
is due in part to the fact that they are
extremely flexible numerical tools and can be interpreted in
a number of ways. For instance, meshfree methods can be viewed as
a natural extension of classical finite element and finite
difference methods to scattered node configurations with no fixed
connectivity. Furthermore, meshfree methods offer a number
of advantageous features which are especially attractive
when dealing… more…
