Summary
In recent years, in the category of numerical analysis, the meshless method has witnessed a research boom to free engineers and scientists from the difficult task of mesh generation and to reduce mesh sensitivity of solutions. Meshless methods include the kernel methods, the moving least square method, the radial basis functions, etc, such as the well-known smoothed particle hydrodynamics, the diffuse element method, the element-free Galerkin, the method of fundamental solution, the reproducing kernel particle method. The meshless method has become an attractive alternative for problems in computational mechanics, computational physics, computational chemistry, computational biology, computational materials science, etc.
The main target of this special issue is to focus on the latest developments of meshless methods, such as theoretical analysis, applications, development of new methods, fast solution techniques, etc. The applications of advanced techniques such as isogeometric analysis, artificial intelligence, the physical-based numerical model, etc, in meshless methods are also welcomed.
