A point collocation method based on reproducing kernel approximations. (English) Zbl 0960.74078

From the summary: We present a point collocation method based on reproducing kernel approximations. We show that, in a point collocation approach, the assignment of nodal volumes and implementation of boundary conditions are not critical issues, and points can be sprinkled randomly making the point collocation method a true meshless approach. The point collocation method based on reproducing kernel approximations, however, requires the calculation of higher-order derivatives that would typically not be required in a Galerkin method. Thus we derive a correction function and reproducing conditions that enable the consistency of the point collocation method. The point collocation method is shown to be accurate for several one- and two-dimensional problems, and the convergence rate of the point collocation method is addressed.
