TL;DR: In this paper, the extended finite element method (XFEM) has been used for three dimensional crack propagation analysis of complex structures and has been shown to be a valid alternative to remeshing for crack propagation problems.
Abstract: The extended finite element method (XFEM) has emerged as a valid alternative to remeshing for crack propagation problems [1,2] and is now employed with success for three dimensional crack propagation analysis of complex structures [5,6].
