Solution of Singular Potential Problems by the Modified Local Green’s Function Method (MLGFM)
Chapter
Abstract
This paper illustrates the applicability of the MLGFM to solve singular potential problems. Two examples are solved for different meshes and the results, which generally show good agreement with analytical ones, are discussed. It is also shown that the convergence rate has a similar behavior than that of the Finite Element Method.
