چکیده

Recently the Meshless and Generalized FEM became to be in the center of interest, especially in the engineering community. I have identified more than 200 engineering papers and four books ([1],[2],[3],[4]). I found very few papers of mathematical character (assumptions, theorems, proofs). Hence there is a large experience and heuristics but not too much mathematical understanding of the methods and their range of the applicability and the performance. There are four basic directions: 1. The construction of the meshless and generalized FEM spaces and their approximation properties. 2. The discretization of the elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic equations (solids, fluids etc) and its convergence. 3. The Implementation.

On the natural stabilization of convection diffusion problems using LPIM meshless method

By using the finite element $p$-Version in convection-diffusion problems, we can attain to a stabilized and accurate results. Furthermore, the fundamental of the finite element $p$-Version is augmentation degrees of freedom. Based on the fact that the finite element and the meshless methods have similar concept, it is obvious that many ideas in the finite element can be easily used in the meshl...

Introduction 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...

Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method in combination with finite element and boundary element approaches

(2000) Meshless local Petrov–Galerkin (MLPG) method in combination with finite element and boundary element approaches. Abstract The Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method is an effective truly meshless method for solving partial differential equations using Moving Least Squares (MLS) interpolants. It is, however, computationally expensive for some problems. A coupled MLPG/Finite Element ...

Generalized Finite Element Methods: Main Ideas, Results, and Perspective

This paper is an overview of the main ideas of the Generalized Finite Element Method (GFEM). We present the basic results, experiences with, and potentials of this method. The GFEM is a generalization of the classical Finite Element Method — in its h, p, and h-p versions — as well as of the various forms of meshless methods used in engineering. AMS(MOS) subject classifications. 65N30, 65N15, 41...

Meshless 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...
