The meshless finite element method

چکیده
A meshless method is presented which has the advantages of the good meshless methods concerning the ease of introduction of node connectivity in a bounded time of order n, and the condition that the shape functions depend only on the node positions. Furthermore, the method proposed also shares several of the advantages of the Finite Element Method such as: (a) the simplicity of the shape functions in a large part of the domain; (b) C continuity between elements, which allows the treatment of material discontinuities, and (c) ease introduction of the boundary conditions.

متن کاملIntroduction to the numerical homogenization by means of the Meshless Finite Difference Method with the Higher Order Approximation
Paper focuses on application of the Meshless Finite Difference Method (MFDM) solution approach and its selected extensions to the numerical homogenization of the heterogeneous material. The most commonly used method of computer modeling for the multiscale problem (at both the macro and micro (RVE) levels) is the Finite Element Method (FEM). However, this fact does not mean that one should not s...
متن کاملMeshless Methods and Partition of Unity Finite Elements
In this paper, meshless methods and partition of unity based finite element methods are reviewed. In meshless methods, the approximation is built without the explicit connectivity information between the nodes; moving-least squares approximants and natural neighbor-based interpolants are discussed. The enrichment of the finite element approximation through the partition of unity framework is de...
