Abstract Trefftz method (TM) is one of widely used meshless numerical methods in elliptic type boundary value problems, of which the approximate solution is expressed as a linear combination of T-complete bases, and the unknown coefficients are determined from boundary conditions by solving a linear equations system. However, the accuracy of TM is severely limited by its ill-conditioning. This paper is a continuation of the work of Liu (2007a). The collocation TM is modified and applied to the direct and inverse problems of biharmonic equation in a simply connected plane domain. Due to its well-conditioning of the resulting linear equations system,… More >
