A Meshless Radial Basis Function Based on Partition of Unity Method for Piezoelectric Structures

A meshless radial basis function based on partition of unity method (RBF-PUM) is proposed to analyse static problems of piezoelectric structures. The methods of radial basis functions (RBFs) possess some merits: the shape functions have high order continuity; h-adaptivity is simpler than mesh-based...
