A. Ortiz-Bernardin, A. Russo, N. Sukumar, “Consistent and stable meshfree Galerkin methods using the virtual element decomposition,” submitted. ABSTRACT Over the past two decades, meshfree methods have undergone significant development as a numerical tool to solve partial differential equations (PDEs). In contrast to finite elements, the basis functions in meshfree method are smooth (nonpolynomial functions),…
