The Development and Application of Meshless Method

Abstract:

Meshless method or mesh free method has many advantages. So far, there are more than ten proposed meshless methods, each has their respective advantages and disadvantages. This paper will focus on the main several meshless methods, we will make a comparison and analysis of their respective adaptation range, at the same time, we will discuss the construction method of typical meshless approximation functions, and summarize the development of the meshless method, development trend and prospects.
