generalized particle method; Poisson equation; unique solvability; stability; discrete Sobolev norm
Summary:
Unique solvability and stability analysis is conducted for a generalized particle method for a Poisson equation with a source term given in divergence form. The generalized particle method is a numerical method for partial differential equations categorized into meshfree particle methods and generally indicates conventional particle methods such as smoothed particle hydrodynamics and moving particle semi-implicit methods. Unique solvability is derived for the generalized particle method for the Poisson equation by introducing a connectivity condition for particle distributions. Moreover, stability is obtained for the discretized Poisson equation by introducing discrete Sobolev norms and a semi-regularity condition of a family of discrete parameters.
