Theoretical Analysis for Moving Least Square Method with Second Order Pseudo-Derivatives and Stabilization

Clack, Jhules

Abstract Details

2014, PhD, University of Cincinnati, Arts and Sciences: Mathematical Sciences.
Meshfree and, in particular Moving Least Square (MLS) schemes have been used to solve a wide range of partial differential equation problems. It is hoped that the expense of grid generation can be avoided by using these approaches especially in applications where mesh refinement is needed to handle singular solution behavior or, in problems with highly complicated domains. Pseudo or diffuse derivatives (DDs) can be used to reduce computation time in these schemes. The property that these derivatives algebraic form is similar to the MLS functional form, has been exploited in fluid dynamics and elasticity problems to simplify the formulations dramati- cally. Many computational studies show these schemes are accurate but little has been proved or shown in any sort of theoretical manner. In this work we develop a convergence analysis for MLS/DD methods on elliptic boundary value problems. We expand our study incorporating various extensions into simple fractional initial value problems.
