Modelling crack growth by level sets in the extended finite element method. (English) Zbl 1022.74049

Int. J. Numer. Methods Eng. 51, No. 8, 943-960 (2001).
From the summary: We describe an algorithm which couples the level set method with extended finite element method to model crack growth. The level set method is used to represent the crack location, including the location of crack tips. The extended finite element method is used to compute stress and displacement fields necessary for determining the rate of crack growth. This combined method requires no remeshing as the crack progresses, making the algorithm very efficient.
