In this paper, the error and stability analysis of the method of fundamental solution (MFS) is explored for biharmonic equations. The bounds of errors are derived for the fundamental solutions r(2) ln r in bounded simply-connected domains, and the polynomial convergence rates are obtained for certain smooth solutions. The bounds of condition number are also derived to show the exponential growth rates for disk domains. Numerical experiments are carried out to support the above analysis, which is the first time to provide the rigorous analysis of the MFS using r(2) ln r for biharmonic equations.
