Abstract
In this paper, we are applied the Meshless method to solve the Timoshenko beam plane stress problem. Together we also applied different two methods of enforcement of essential boundary conditions. The first is the Lagrange multiplier method and the Penalty method is then. The shape function is constructed by the moving least squares approximation. Result obtained is good showed the convergence of the strain energy of two methods with respect to the analysis result of the Timoshenko beam. All the programs are wrote by the Matlab language.
