A two-level transformation scheme to enable a practical fast mesh-free
method is disclosed. The first level transformation transforms the
original chosen mesh-free shape function to a first transformed mesh-free
shape function that preserves Kronecker delta properties. The first
transformed mesh-free function allows the essential boundary conditions
to be imposed directly. The second-level transformation scheme employs a
low pass filter function served as a regularization process that filters
out the higher-order terms in the monomial mesh-free approximation
obtained from the first-level transformation scheme with desired
consistency and completeness conditions. This integration scheme requires
only a low-order integration rule comparing to the high order integration
rule used in the traditional mesh-free methods. The present invention
simplifies the boundary condition treatments and avoids the usage of
high-order integration rule and therefore is more practical than the
traditional mesh-free methods.
