Crack Nucleation and Branching in the eXtended Finite Element Method
(2013)The eXtended Finite Element Method (X-FEM) has proven to be a robust method for simulating crack propagation, but relatively little work has focused on the important problem of crack initiation or nucleation. In this work, ...
