Computing Crack Growth in Quasiperiodic Alloys
A standard crystalline lattice is characterized by periodicity and symmetries described by crystallographic groups. However, there exist strange alloys for which periodicity is violated by their own structure....

An extended finite element method with higher-order elements for curved cracks
A finite element method for linear elastic fracture mechanics using enriched quadratic interpolations is presented. The quadratic finite elements are enriched with the asymptotic near tip displacement solutio...

Laws of Evolution of Cracks in Plates in Terms of Stress Resultants
The laws of evolution of a crack that starts at the edge of a plate and progresses toward its interior are derived in terms of stress and moment resultants written in the reference configuration of the plate. ...
