Abstract The paper deals with diminishing the prolongation of the computational time due to procedural evaluation of the shape functions and their derivatives in weak formulations implemented with meshless approximations. The proposed numerical techniques are applied to problems of stationary heat conduction in functionally graded media. Besides the investigation of the computational efficiency also the accuracy and convergence study are performed in numerical tests. More >
