Abstract
Elementβfree Galerkin method (EFGM) is extended to simulate transient electromagnetic field. EFGM, which is based on moving leastβsquare interpolations for the test and trial functions, is a promising method that needs no element connectivity data but only a set of nodes in computational domain and boundaries and does not suffer much degradation in accuracy when nodal arrangements are very irregular. EFGM is applicable to arbitrary shapes; therefore, it can solve some problems that traditional gridβbased methods cannot solve effectively in timeβdomain electromagnetic field, such as thin plate problems, narrow gap problems, antenna structure optimization, etc. The numerical examples present the validation of EFGM in transient electromagnetic field and its advantages compared with traditional numerical methods.

The Element-Free Galerkin (EFG) method is a meshless method for solving partial differential equations which uses only a set of nodal points and a CAD-like description of the body to formulate the discrete model. It has been used extensively for fracture problems and has yielded good results when ad
In the proposed element-free Galerkin method for deforming multiphase porous media, displacement of the porous-solid skeleton is modelled by standard finite elements while wetting and non-wetting fluid pore pressures are included as element-free nodes. The matrix formulation is derived from the vari
