And then, the trail function can satisfy the essential boundary condition previously by setting diagonal element to 1 or multiplying diagonal element by a big number in FEM. The MLS method is adopted to validate this method, and it is proved that this method is eostless and robust in most of mesh-less methods.展开更多
