  3. Abstract:
  4. In this paper, a finite point method is employed to solve the incompressible laminar Stokes flow. A moving least-squares approximation, using linear and quadratic basis functions, in conjunction with a point collocation method, has been utilized to discretize the governing equations. Two examples, including the driven cavity and the fully developed channel flow, are solved showing the accuracy and applicability of the method. In summary, the solutions for the linear basis case exhibit a large sensitivity to the size of the domain of influence of the weighting function, in contrast to the quadratic basis case
