Abstract
A hybrid computational method for solving boundary-value problems is i ntroduced which combines features of the meshless hp-cloud methods wit h features of conventional finite elements. The method admits straight forward nonuniform hp-type approximations, easy implementation of esse ntial boundary conditions, is robust under severe distortions of the m esh, and can deliver exponential rates of convergence. Results of nume rical experiments are presented.
