Abstract

We prove convergence for a meshfree first-order system least squares (FOSLS) partition of unity finite element method (PUFEM). Essentially, by virtue of the partition of unity, local approximation gives rise to global approximation in H(div)H(curl). The FOSLS formulation yields local a posteriori error estimates to guide the judicious allotment of new degrees of freedom to enrich the initial point set in a meshfree discretization. Preliminary numerical results are provided and remaining challenges are discussed.
