Abstract A new numerical technique for post-buckling analysis is presented by combining the asymptotic numerical method (ANM) and the Taylor meshless method (TMM). These two methods are based on Taylor series, with respect to a scalar load parameter for ANM, and with respect to the space variables for TMM. The advantage of ANM is an adaptive step length, which is very efficient near bifurcation points. The specificity of TMM is a quasi-exact solution of the partial differential equations inside the domain, which leads to a strong reduction of the number of degrees of freedom.
