  • Abstract
    The element-free Galerkin method (EFGM) and the boundary-node method (BNM) have been reformulated without integration cells. After a boundary is represented in terms of an implicit function, matrix elements are evaluated by use of the function. The results of computations show that the accuracy of the reformulated BNM is even higher than that of the dual-reciprocal boundary-element method. In addition, both the accuracy of the X-BNM and that of X-EFGM strongly depend on the support radius.
