Abstract As a truly meshless method, the Hybrid Boundary Node method (Hybrid BNM) does not require a `boundary element mesh', either for the purpose of interpolation of the solution variables or for the integration of `energy'. This paper presents a further development of the Hybrid BNM to the 2D elastodynamics. Based on the radial basis function (RBF) and the Hybrid BNM, it presents an inherently meshless, boundary-only technique, which named dual hybrid boundary node method (DHBNM), for solving 2D elastodynamics. In this study, the RBFs are employed to approximate the inhomogeneous terms via dual reciprocity method More >
