Abstract: In this article, a novel adaptive mesh refinement scheme based on trimmed hexahedral (TH) meshes is proposed to simulate phase‐field fracture in brittle materials. A regular hexahedral background mesh is adaptively refined using a balanced… read more here.

Abstract: The tensile strength of brittle and tension-sensitive materials can be determined experimentally by the Brazilian test. To complement the experimental results numerical methods are required which predict the effective properties of the material as an… read more here.
