The Meshless formulation begins by defining a set of data centers, NC, comprised of points on the boundary, NB, and points on the interior, NI. These data centers will serve as collocation points for the localized expansion of the different field variables in the domain, Ω, and on the boundary, Γ, see Fig. 5. The essential difference between boundary points and internal points is simply that boundary conditions will be applied at the first while governing equations will be applied at the last.
