Effective 2D and 3D crack propagation with local mesh refinement and the screened Poisson equation

In this paper, we propose a simple 2D and 3D crack evolution algorithm which avoids the variable/DOF mapping within mesh adaptation algorithms. To this end, a new area/volume minimization algorithm for damaged elements is introduced with the goal of improving the crack path representation. In additi...
