Meshless methods for nonlinear continuum mechanics

In the past two decades, meshless methods have been successfully implemented to solve numerous problems in engineering and science. The main characteristic of these methods is that the approximation functions do not require an established node connectivity (mesh) as is the case with Finite Element M...
