By introducing the dimension splitting (DS) method into the moving least-squares (MLS) approximation, a dimension splitting moving least-squares (DS-MLS) method is proposed in this paper. In the DS-MLS method, the operator splitting and independent variable splitting of the DS method are used to reduce the dimension, thereby reducing the computational complexity of the matrix. The shape function of the DS-MLS method has the advantages of simple derivation and high computational efficiency. Then, by coupling DS-MLS method and Galerkin weak form, and performing the coordinate transformation, an improved element-free Galerkin method (IEFGM) based on the DS-MLS method is proposed for two-dimensional (2D) potential problems on irregular domains. The effectiveness of the method in this paper is verified by some numerical examples. The numerical results show that, compared with the element-free Galerkin (EFG) method, the IEFGM based on the DS-MLS method in this paper consumes less CPU time and has higher computational accuracy for some 2D potential problems on irregular domains.
By introducing the dimensional splitting (DS) method into the multiscale interpolating element-free Galerkin (VMIEFG) method, a dimension-splitting multiscale interpolating element-free Galerkin (DS-VMIEFG) method is proposed for three-dimensional (3D) singular perturbed convection-diffusion (SPCD) problems. In the DS-VMIEFG method, the 3D problem is decomposed into a series of 2D problems by the DS method, and the discrete equations on the 2D splitting surface are obtained by the VMIEFG method. The improved interpolation-type moving least squares (IIMLS) method is used to construct shape functions in the weak form and to combine 2D discrete equations into a global system of discrete equations for the three-dimensional SPCD problems. The solved numerical example verifies the effectiveness of the method in this paper for the 3D SPCD problems. The numerical solution will gradually converge to the analytical solution with the increase in the number of nodes. For extremely small singular diffusion coefficients, the numerical solution will avoid numerical oscillation and has high computational stability.
