Numerical modelling of fatigue crack growth using XFEM
The Finite Element Method (FEM) is one of the most efficient tools used, in computational solid mechanics, for the numerical solution of Partial Differential Equations (PDE). This numerical technique has been extensively used in the past decades for finding approximate solutions to PDE in both engin...
