ESFM: An Essential Software Framework for Meshfree Methods
ESFM, an object-oriented software framework for meshfree methods, is described. Using few ESFM components can yield 48 variations of meshfree methods. ESFM enables exploring meshfree method implementations such as data structures and algorithms. Using ESFM, researchers can develop new meshfree methods with much less effort. ESFM is an ideal platform for future research on meshfree methods.
