Finite differences provided the first numerical approach that permitted large-scale simulations in many applications areas, such as geophysical fluid dynamics. As accuracy and integration time requirements gradually increased, the focus shifted from finite differences to a variety of different spectral methods. During the last few years, radial basis functions, in particular in their ‘local’ RBF-FD form, have taken the major step from being mostly a curiosity approach for small-scale PDE ‘toy problems’ to becoming a major contender also for very large simulations on advanced distributed memory computer systems. Being entirely mesh-free, RBF-FD discretizations are also particularly easy to implement, even when local refinements are needed. This article gives some background to this development, and highlights some recent results.

For many studies, knowledge of continuous evolution of hydrodynamic characteristics is useful but generally measurement techniques provide only discrete information. In the case of complex flows, usual numerical interpolating methods appear to be not adapted, as for the free decaying swirling flow presented in this study. The three-dimensional motion involved induces a spatial dependent velocity-field. Thus, the interpolating method has to be three-dimensional and to take into account possible flow nonlinearity, making common methods unsuitable. A different interpolation method is thus proposed, based on a neural network algorithm with Radial Basis Functions.
