Meshfree Methods: Moving Beyond the Finite Element Method, Second Edition by G.R. Liu (National University of Singapore)
Understand How to Use and Develop Meshfree Techniques
An Update of a Groundbreaking Work
Reflecting the significant advances made in the field since the publication of its predecessor, Meshfree Methods: Moving Beyond the Finite Element Method, Second Edition systematically covers the most widely used meshfree methods. With 70% new material, this edition addresses important new developments, especially on essential theoretical issues.
New to the Second Edition
- Much more details on fundamental concepts and important theories for numerical methods
- Discussions on special properties of meshfree methods, including stability, convergence, accurate, efficiency, and bound property
- More detailed discussion on error estimation and adaptive analysis using meshfree methods
- Developments on combined meshfree/finite element method (FEM) models
- Comparison studies using meshfree and FEM
Drawing on the authors own research, this book provides a single-source guide to meshfree techniques and theories that can effectively handle a variety of complex engineering problems. It analyzes how the methods work, explains how to use and develop the methods, and explores the problems associated with meshfree methods.
