The Improved Interpolating Complex Variable Element Free Galerkin Method for Two-Dimensional Potential Problems

Abstract

In this paper, the improved interpolating complex variable moving least squares (IICVMLS) method is applied, in which the complete basis function is introduced and combined with the singular weight function to achieve the orthometric basis function. Then, the interpolating shape function is achieved to construct the interpolating trial function. Incorporating the IICVMLS method and the Galerkin integral weak form, an improved interpolating complex variable element free Galerkin (IICVEFG) method is proposed to solve the 2D potential problem. Because the essential boundary conditions can be straightaway imposed in the above method, the expressions of final dispersed matrices are more concise in contrast to the non-interpolating complex variable meshless methods. Through analyzing four specific potential problems, the IICVEFG method is validated with greater computing precision and efficiency.
