Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering Vol. 119, No. 25-28, pp. 1859-1871, 2010 A. Ortiz , M.A. Puso, N. Sukumar Abstract Numerical integration errors and volumetric locking in the near-incompressible limit are two outstanding issues in Galerkin-based meshfree computations. In this paper, we present a modified Gaussian integration scheme on background cells for meshfree
