Modified Shepard's method by six-points local interpolant

摘要

In this paper, we present an improvement of the Hexagonal Shepard method which uses functional and first order derivative data. More in details, we use six-point basis functions in combination with the modified local interpolant on six-points. The resulting operator reproduces polynomials up to degree 3 and has quartic approximation order. Several numerical results show the good accuracy of approximation of the proposed operator.
