Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic crack propagation based on loss of hyperbolicity and a new discontinuous enrichment
TL;DR: In this article, a methodology is developed for switching from a continuum to a discrete discontinuity where the governing partial dierential equation loses hyperbolicity, and the transition occurs on a set of measure zero.
Journal ArticleDOI
A vector level set method and new discontinuity approximations for crack growth by EFG
TL;DR: In this article, a vector level set method for modeling propagating cracks in the element-free Galerkin (EFG) method is presented, where only nodal data are used to describe the crack; no geometrical entity is introduced for the crack trajectory, and no partial differential equations need to be solved to update the level sets.
Journal ArticleDOI
The extended finite element method for dynamic fractures
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for modeling arbitrary growth of dynamic cracks without remeshing is presented, which is based on a local partition of unity and combined with level sets, so that the discontinuities can be represented entirely in terms of nodal data.
Book ChapterDOI
New Methods for Discontinuity and Crack Modeling in EFG
TL;DR: In this paper, a jump function is used for the displacement discontinuity along the crack faces and the Westergard solution enrichment near the crack tip, which can be limited only to the nodes surrounding the crack.
Book ChapterDOI
Discontinuous Radial Basis Function Approximations for Meshfree Methods
Jingxiao Xu,Ted Belytschko +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a mesh-free method with discontinuous radial basis functions and their numerical implementation for elastic problems is presented, which is coupled with level set methods and requires no explicit representation of the discontinuity.
