Corrective meshless particle formulations for time domain Maxwell's equations
2007
AbstractIn this paper a meshless approximation of electromagnetic (EM) field functions and relative differential operators based on particle formulation is proposed. The idea is to obtain numerical solutions for EM problems by passing up the mesh generation usually required to compute derivatives, and by employing a set of particles arbitrarily placed in the problem domain. The meshless Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method has been reformulated for solving the time domain Maxwell's curl equations. The consistency of the discretized model is investigated and improvements in the approximation are obtained by modifying the numerical process. Corrective algorithms preserving meshless consiste…

Towards an efficient meshfree solver
2016
In this paper we focus on the enhancement in accuracy approximating a function and its derivatives via smoothed particle hydrodynamics. We discuss about improvements in the solution by reformulating the original method by means of the Taylor series expansion and by projecting with the kernel function and its derivatives. The accuracy of a function and its derivatives, up to a fixed order, can be simultaneously improved by assuming them as unknowns of a linear system. The improved formulation has been assessed with gridded and scattered data points distribution and the convergence has been analyzed referring to a case study in a 2D domain.
The Poisson problem: A comparison between two approaches based on SPH method
2012
Abstract In this paper two approaches to solve the Poisson problem are presented and compared. The computational schemes are based on Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method which is able to perform an integral representation by means of a smoothing kernel function by involving domain particles in the discrete formulation. The first approach is derived by means of the variational formulation of the Poisson problem, while the second one is a direct differential method. Numerical examples on different domain geometries are implemented to verify and compare the proposed approaches; the computational efficiency of the developed methods is also studied.
Some Numerical Remarks on a Meshless Approximation Method
2016
In this paper we consider sources of enhancement for the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method in approximating a function and its derivatives. It is well known that the standard formulation is usually poor when scattered data distribution is considered or when the approximation near the boundary occurs. In this paper studies on the accuracy are provided and assessed with gridded and scattered data distribution in the problem domain. The improvements of the method are addressed and supporting numerical experiments are included.

A numerical meshless particle method in solving the magnetoencephalography forward problem
2012
In this paper, a numerical meshless particle method is presented in order to solve the magnetoencephalography forward problem for analyzing the complex activation patterns in the human brain. The forward problem is devoted to compute the scalp potential and magnetic field distribution generated by a set of current sources representing the neural activity, and in this paper, it has been approached by means of the smoothed particle hydrodynamics method suitably handled. The Poisson equation generated by the quasi-stationary Maxwell's curl equations, by assuming Neumann boundary conditions has been considered, and the current sources have been simulated by current dipoles. The adopted meshless…
SPH method: numerical investigations and applications
2018
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.
