"A Meshless and Matrix-Free Approach to Modeling Turbulent Fluid Flow." <i>Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences,</i> 129, no. 3 (2021) Tech Science Press: 1373-1393. https://doi.org/10.32604/cmes.2021.017883.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/111790A meshless and matrix-free fluid dynamics solver (SOMA) is introduced that avoids the need for user generated and/or analyzed grids, volumes, and meshes. Incremental building of the approximation avoids creation and inversion of possibly dense block diagonal matrices and significantly reduces user interaction. Validation results are presented from the application of SOMA to subsonic, compressible, and turbulent flow over an adiabatic flat plate.engThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.Journal articleAMeshlessMatrix-FreeApproachModelingTurbulentFluidFlowhttps://doi.org/10.32604/cmes.2021.017883
