In this article, a new numerical quadrature technique, partition of unity quadratures (PUQ), for Galerkin meshless methods is presented. But it is not a meshless method based on finite covering.
Abstract
Numerical quadrature is an important ingredient of Galerkin meshless methods. A new numerical quadrature technique, partition of unity quadrature (PUQ), for Galerkin meshless methods was presented. The technique is based on finite covering and partition of unity. There is no need to decompose the physical domain into small cell. It possesses remarkable integration accuracy. Using Element-free Galerkin methods as example, Galerkin meshless methods based on PUQ were studied in detail. Meshing is always not required in the procedure of constitution of approximate function or numerical quadrature, so Galerkin meshless methods based on PUQ are “truly” meshless methods.

Meshless methods: An overview and recent developments

TL;DR: Meshless approximations based on moving least-squares, kernels, and partitions of unity are examined and it is shown that the three methods are in most cases identical except for the important fact that partitions ofunity enable p-adaptivity to be achieved.

A new implementation of the element free Galerkin method

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified variational principle is used to replace the Lagrange multipliers at the outset by their physical meaning so that the discrete equations are banded, and weighted orthogonal basis functions are constructed so the need for solving equations at each quadrature point is eliminated.

Nodal integration of the element-free Galerkin method

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that nodal integration, like SPH, suffers from spurious singular modes and is treated by the addition to the potential energy functional of a stabilization term which contains the square of the residual of the equilibrium equation.
