The stress intensity factors can be evaluated without post-processing with the improved extended finite element method,so it is convenient to analyze the dynamic discontinuities.

Seismic fracture simulation of the Koyna gravity dam using an extended finite element method;

Numerical simulation for effect of crack on mechanical behavior of cantilever beam by extended finite element method

The extended finite element method(XFEM) presented in recent years is a new and effective method for discontinuity analysis,especially fracture problem analyses.

An integration scheme for discontinuities in the extended finite element method

Focus is placed on their construction features and differences, concerning concrete cohesive cracks with emphasis on elements with embedded discontinuity model, on extended finite element method (XFEM) and on enriched finite element techni.

In this paper, the extended digital image correlation (X-DIC), which has the advantage of self-immunity in the irregular boundary such as crack, hole and so on, is developed to measure the full-field displacements using the partition of unity method as in the extended finite element method.

In this paper,the debonds between case and insulation in solid rocket motor(SRM) are studied extended finit element method(XFEM).

Extended finite element method (XFEM) is a new numerical method developed in recent years, under the conventional finite element framework, to solve the discontinuous problems particularly crack propagation.
