Adaptive finite element simulation of fracture: from plastic deformation to crack propagation
… cohesive zone model approach in which interface elements capable of separating are adaptively inserted at bulk element facets when and where they are needed throughout the numerical simulation. The inter-element cohesive zone model approach is known to suffer from mesh bias. Thus, we utilize …

Restriction methods for shape and topology optimization
… of solutions in detail and outline the key elements of a well-posed restriction formulation for both density and implicit function parametrizations of the shapes. In the latter case, we demonstrate both mathematically and numerically that without an additional ""transversality"" condition, …
