description

In this paper we discuss on the enhancements in accuracy and computational demanding in approx- imating a function and its derivatives via Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics. The standard method is widely used nowadays in various physics and engineering applications [1],[2],[3]. However it suffers of low approximation accuracy at boundaries or when scattered data distributions are con- sidered. In this paper we discuss on some numerical behaviors of the method. Some variants of the process are analyzed and results on the accuracy and the computational demanding, dealing with different sets of data and bivariate functions, are proposed.
