Super-convergence of reproducing kernel approximation

The reproducing kernel particle methods (RKPM) are meshfree methods arising in mechanics, especially in dealing with problems involving large deformation and singularities. We provide a theoretical analysis of super-convergence in Sobolev norms for reproducing kernel (RK) approximations when the interpolation order p is even. Super-convergence phenomenon means the convergence rate is higher than the order that is generally expected. We...
