Abstract: Abstract The Implicit Formulation of the Boundary Element Method (BEM) is used to deal with physically non-linear 2D-problems in solids. An isotropic damage constitutive model, equipped with a strain softening rule, is applied to increasingly… read more here.

Abstract: This paper performs an in-depth study of the theoretical basis behind the strong discontinuity methods to improve local fracture simulations using the Embedded Finite Element Method (E-FEM). The process starts from a review of the… read more here.
