A stabilized finite point method (FPM) for meshless analysis of incompressible fluid flow problems is presented. The stabilization approach is based in the finite increment calculus (FIC) procedure developed by Oñate. An enhanced fractional step procedure allowing the semi-implicit numerical solution of incompressible fluids using the FPM is described. Examples of application of the stabilized FPM to the solution of two incompressible flow problems are presented.
