Abstract
The basis of the Finite point method (FPM) for the fully meshless solution of elasticity problems in structural mechanics is described. A stabilizatio n technique based on a finite calculus procedure is used to improve the qua lity or the numerical solution, The efficiency and accuracy of the stabiliz ed FPM in the meshless analysis of simple linear elastic structural problem s is shown in some examples of applications.
