Abstract: Although arbitrary-order accuracy can be achieved in meshless particle methods by combining Taylor-series expansion with least-squares techniques, this approach incurs high computational costs due to the inversion of high-order matrices. In this study, we develop a novel meshless method called least-square finite volume particle (LSFVP) method for solving PDEs efficiently. The particles are modeled as squares in two-dimensional space. The integral form of the PDEs is discretized for each finite volume particle using the LSFVP framework. The original second-order derivative is conceptually transformed into a first-order derivative. The least square method is employed to estimate the flux across particle surfaces, while Gauss integration ensures the overall second-order accuracy in evaluating surface flux integrals. Several numerical examples are presented to validate the proposed LSFVP method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
