Efficient Extended Finite Element Algorithms for Strongly and Weakly Discontinuous Entities with Complex Internal Geometries
abstract: The objective of this research is to develop robust, accurate, and adaptive algorithms in the framework of the extended finite element method (XFEM) for fracture analysis of highly heterogeneous materials with complex internal geometries. A key contribution of this work is the creation of...
