9.1 Similarity and difference …………………….…………………………………221 VIII Chapter 10 Conclusions and recommendations 233 CHAPTER 10 Conclusions and Recommendations 10.1 Conclusions In this thesis, two mesh-free methods: least square-based finite difference (LSFD) method and local RBF-based differential quadrature (LRBF-DQ) method have been developed. Their abilities of dealing with the problems in fluid mechanics have also been demonstrated by applications to different types of flow problems with dynamic and geometric complexity, such as unsteady flow around two cylinders, natural convection within complex geometry, and compressible flow with shock waves. Note that both methods belong to the non-integral types of mesh-free methods. In other words, they solve the strong form of partial differential equations (PDEs), and the discretization process consists only of mesh-free derivative approximation. In this regard, they are truly mesh-free since no requirement of additional background meshes is needed. The LSFD method is based on the use of a weighted least square (WLS) technique together with a Taylor series expansion of the unknown function. The role of the weighting function is to tune the error distribution according to the relative position of the supporting points to the reference node. One important feature of the method is its ability to construct the Chapter 10 Conclusions and recommendations 234 mesh-free interpolants according to the practical node distribution in the local support. Though the least square technique is adopted to overcome the possible ill-conditioned coefficient matrix, the method does not degrade the order of accuracy. Furthermore, it holds the property of the Kronecker δ shape function, which is appreciated in the numerical schemes for fluid mechanics. From the point of view of practical implementation, LSFD method is very like the traditional finite difference method: simple and easy for programming. Several distinguishable advantages can be enjoyed from the use of LSFD method as compared with other mesh-free methods. • Truly mesh-free. In some mesh-free methods, the integration process requires background meshes. • Delta-shape function at the reference node. This circumvents the difficulty of implementation of essential boundary condition encountered in some mesh-free methods. • Simple, and easy to implement. LSFD method shares many common features with traditional finite difference method. It is easy for beginner to use this method after a short time of learning. Local RBF-DQ method, just as its name implies, gets the inspiration from the RBFs and differential quadrature (DQ) method. All previous works related to the application of radial basis functions for the numerical solution of PDEs have been based on the function approximation instead of derivative approximation. Thus, in the nonlinear partial Chapter 10 Conclusions and recommendations 235 differential problems, special numerical techniques must be used to realize the Newton iteration and convergence. This makes the solution procedure complicated and very difficult, especially for the beginners in the computational area. In the RBF-DQ method, the RBFs serve as the trial functions that are used to approximate the solution of the given differential equations. The achieved coefficients are only related to the positions of supporting points in the local support and the RBFs specified. In other words, they are problem-independent and consistently applicable to the linear and nonlinear partial differential equations. It should also be noted that both methods make no distinction regarding the dimension of the practical problems. In general, the local MQ-DQ method takes the following advantages over other RBF-based schemes: • It can be consistently applied to both linear and nonlinear problems. • It can employ a large number of nodes to solve large scale engineering problems. Some BRFs-based numerical methods can only use less than 2000 nodes. • It can preserve the valuable properties of RBFs such as high accuracy and naturally mesh-free. Successful numerical simulations of flow problems by the two mesh-free methods involving dynamic and geometric complexity prove their applicability to large scale practical applications in engineering. The simple algorithms and easy implementation of the two mesh-free methods also imply that they can be easily and extensively adopted by other end-users for the purpose of mesh-free researches/applications in their field. Chapter 10 Conclusions and recommendations 236 Despite of their attractive properties such as truly mesh-free and simple algorithm, they, however, also have the common weakness of all the mesh-free methods: poor computational efficiency. To alleviate this drawback, a hybrid scheme, which combines the mesh-free method with traditional finite difference scheme, is presented in Chapter 8. Numerical results show that compared to the pure mesh-free method, the hybrid scheme can greatly improve the computational efficiency. 10.2 Recommendations on the future work The studies conducted so far are considered as an initial investigation for the performance of mesh-free methods in the solutions of some practical flow problems. The searching for a better or more suitable mesh-free method for fluid mechanics is continuing. The high flexibility of the two mesh-free methods also presents some challenging research problems, such as looking for best radial basis functions for local RBF-DQ method, and more suitable definition of local support. From the node generation’s point of view, a more general and flexible node generator is required in order to exploit the extreme power of the mesh-free method. From the practical applications’ point of view, there is an immense opportunity for the mesh-free computational research, ranging from the small scale like micro-flow to the large one like the study of nebula. All these are considered to be the motivating factors for the future work. It is hoped that the insights presented in this thesis will help to spur more interest in and launch more investigations into the use of mesh-free methods for the numerical flow simulation.

Successive Over-Relaxation TPS Thin Plate Splines XXII Summary The recent decade has witnessed a research boom on the mesh- free methods It is well-known that the mesh- free methods have a few clear advantages over the meshbased methods such as the requirement of node generation instead of mesh generation and easy deletion/insertion of new nodes Up to date, a lot of attentions of mesh- free researchers have been... solution of partial differential equations in the weak form As a result, many mesh- free methods can be grouped into the finite element community However, due to their dependence on the background mesh (exclusive of MLPG method) for integration, they bear the reputation of not being truly mesh- free methods One way to overcome this drawback is to develop the meshfree methods which solve the strong form of. .. unstructured meshes for FE and FV Chapter 1 Introduction 6 methods, despite recent advances in the field, is still the bottleneck in many industrial computations Another difficulty appears in the simulation of moving boundary problems With the moving of boundaries, successive re-meshing of the domain may be required to avoid the break down of the computation due to excessive mesh distortion if standard schemes... researchers showed their interests in the Chapter 1 Introduction 8 development of methods with mesh- free property As a result, a number of new meshfree methods appeared in 1990s: the diffuse element method (DEM) (Nayrole et al 1992), the element -free Galerkin method (EFGM) (Belytschko et al 1994 1995 1996), multiquadric methods (MQM) (Kansa 1990a,b), reproducing kernel particle methods (RKPM) (Liu... need of a background quadrature scheme to evaluate the integrals, which appear in the weak forms used by the Galerkin method, also impairs the efficiency and applicability of the method to the practical applications 1.3.2.3 Meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method In the mesh- free methods of integral type mentioned above, they all need a background mesh to evaluate the integral of weak form of governing... discretization of governing equations of flow problems does not depend on the availability of a mesh Some mesh- free methods do have a weak dependence on background meshes to carry out numerical quadrature calculation Such methods are still regarded as mesh- free because there is no fixed connection among the nodes, but not “truly” mesh- free method due to the background meshes used One of the key advantages of mesh- free .
