Abstract |
Infrastructure materials are essential components of the nation’s infrastructure and transportation systems. Deteriorating infrastructures require the development of computational tools to predict fracture behavior. The extended-finite-element method (XFEM) has been recently developed to eliminate remesh efforts by allowing crack propagation within continuous elements...
