Meshfree methods for the solution of partial differential equations gained much attention in recent years, not only in the engineering but also in the mathemati

The numerical treatment of partial differential equations with particle methods and meshfree discretization techniques is a very active research field both in t

Meshfree methods, particle methods, and generalized finite element methods have witnessed substantial development since the mid 1990s. The growing interest in t

This volume collects selected papers presented at the Ninth International Workshop on Meshfree Methods held in Bonn, Germany in September 2017. They address var

The finite difference method (FDM) hasbeen used tosolve differential equation systems for centuries. The FDM works well for problems of simple geometry and was
