CONFORMING FINITE ELEMENTS WITH EMBEDDED STRONG DISCONTINUITIES

The possibility of embedding strong discontinuities into finite elements allowed the simulation of different problems, namely, brickwork masonry fracture, dynamic fracture, failure in finite strain problems and simulation of reinforcement concrete members. However, despite the significant contributi...
