Abstract

This short communication presents a meshless local B-spline basis functions-finite difference (FD) method for transient heat conduction analysis. The method is truly meshless as only scattered nodal distribution is required in the problem domain. It is also simple and efficient to program. As it has the Kronecker delta property, the imposition of boundary conditions can be incorporated efficiently. In the method, any governing equations are discretized by B-spline approximation in the spirit of FD technique using local B-spline collocation. It hence belongs to a generalized FD method, in which any derivative at a point or node is stated as neighbouring nodal values based on the B-spline interpolants. Numerical results show the effectiveness and efficiency of the meshless method for analysis of transient heat conduction in complex domain.
