Abstract
A Galerkin boundary node method (GBNM) is developed in this paper for solving biharmonic problems. The GBNM combines an equivalent variational form of boundary integral formulations for governing equations with the moving least-squares approximations for construction of the trial and test functions. In this approach, only a nodal data structure on the boundary of a domain is required. In addition, boundary conditions can be implemented accurately and the system matrices are symmetric. The convergence of this method and numerical examples are given to show the efficiency.
