Application of a meshless method in electromagnetics

An improved meshless method is presented with an emphasis on the detailed description of this new computational technique and its numerical implementations by investigating the usefulness of a commonly neglected parameter in this paper. Two approaches to enforce essential boundary conditions are also thoroughly investigated. Numerical tests on a mathematical function is carried out as a means of validating the proposed method. It will be seen that the proposed method is more robust than the conventional ones. Applications in solving electromagnetic problems are also presented.

A combined wavelet-element free Galerkin method for numerical calculations of electromagnetic fields

A combined wavelet-element free Galerkin (EFG) method is proposed for solving electromagnetic EM) field problems. The bridging scales are used to preserve the consistency and linear independence properties of the entire bases. A detailed description of the development of the discrete model and its numerical implementations is given to facilitate the reader to. understand the proposed algorithm. A numerical example to validate the proposed method is also reported.

The element-free Galerkin method applied to the study of fully developed magnetohydrodynamic duct flows

In this paper, the meshless method is introduced to magnetohydrodynamics. A numerical scheme based on the element-free Galerkin method is used to solve the laminar steady-state two-dimensional fully developed magnetohydrodynamic flow in a rectangular duct. Accurate and convergent solutions are achieved for low to moderately high Hartmann numbers.
