Meshfree Methods - Description

Description

Meshfree methods eliminate some or all of the traditional mesh-based view of the computational domain and rely on a particle (either Lagrangian or Eulerian) view of the field problem.

A goal of meshfree methods is to facilitate the simulation of increasingly demanding problems that require the ability to treat large deformations, advanced materials, complex geometry, nonlinear material behavior, discontinuities and singularities. For example the melting of a solid or the freezing process can be simulated using meshfree methods.

Famous quotes containing the word description:

    It [Egypt] has more wonders in it than any other country in the world and provides more works that defy description than any other place.
    Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)

    I fancy it must be the quantity of animal food eaten by the English which renders their character insusceptible of civilisation. I suspect it is in their kitchens and not in their churches that their reformation must be worked, and that Missionaries of that description from [France] would avail more than those who should endeavor to tame them by precepts of religion or philosophy.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    To give an accurate description of what has never occurred is not merely the proper occupation of the historian, but the inalienable privilege of any man of parts and culture.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
