A localized version of the method of fundamental solution (LMFS) is devised in this paper for the numerical solutions of three-dimensional (3D) elasticity problems. The present method combines the advantages of high computational efficiency of localized discretization schemes and the pseudo-spectral convergence rate of the classical MFS formulation. Such a combination will be an important improvement to the classical MFS for complicated and large-scale engineering simulations. Numerical examples with up to 100,000 unknowns can be solved without any difficulty on a personal computer using the developed methodologies. The advantages, disadvantages and potential applications of the proposed method, as compared with the classical MFS and boundary element method (BEM), are discussed.
