  1. Modeling and Simulation of Random Processes and Fields in Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics

    … with arbitrarily shaped inclusions. A novel enrichment function, which can model arbitrarily shaped inclusions within the framework of XFEM, is proposed. The internal boundary of an arbitrarily shaped inclusion is first discretized, and a numerical enrichment function is constructed "on the …

  2. A novel discrete damage zone model and enhancement of the extended finite element method for fracture mechanics problems

    … in fracture mechanics: (I) A new crack tip enrichment function in the extended finite element method (XFEM), and (II) a discrete damage zone model for quasi-static and fatigue delamination in composites. The first method improves XFEM when applied to general nonlinear materials when crack …

  3. Three-dimensional modeling of failure in quasi-brittle materials and structures

    … in the local problem domains. The GFEMg-l enrichment functions allow the kinematics to be represented in the global domain through enrichment function from the local problems rather than explicitly modeling each crack discretely in the global domain. This research effort also proposes an …
