  Meshfree solution schemes for the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations are
usually based on algorithms commonly used in finite volume methods, such as
projection methods, SIMPLE and PISO algorithms. However, drawbacks of these
algorithms that are specific to meshfree methods have often been overlooked. In
this paper, we study the drawbacks of conventionally used meshfree Generalized
Finite Difference Method~(GFDM) schemes for Lagrangian incompressible
Navier-Stokes equations, both operator splitting schemes and monolithic
schemes. The major drawback of most of these schemes is inaccurate local
approximations to the mass conservation condition. Further, we propose a new
modification of a commonly used monolithic scheme that overcomes these problems
and shows a better approximation for the velocity divergence condition. We then
perform a numerical comparison which shows the new monolithic scheme to be more
accurate than existing schemes.
