Introduction to eXtended Finite Element (XFEM) Method
Abstract: In the present study the software CrackComput , based on the Xfem and Xcrack libraries has been used for three problemsto experiment on the convergence properties of the method applied to elasto-statics crack problems, comparison of stress intensity factors to simplified analytical results and study of the Brazilian fracture test. All the problems are treated in two dimensions under p...
متن کاملan extended finite element (xfem) approach for crack analysis in composite media
a new approach is proposed to model a crack in orthotropic composite media using the extended finite element method (xfem). the xfem uses the concept of partition of unity in addition to meshless basic idea of approximating a field variable by its values at a set of surrounding nodes. as a result, higher order approximations can be designed with the same total number of degrees of freedom. in t...
متن کامل3d Two-phase Flow Simulations with the Extended Finite Element Method (xfem)
Abstract. Based on a validated two-dimensional XFEM code for two-phase flows, this work deals with the extension of this code to three spatial dimensions using structured hexahedral meshes. Surface tension effects are considered, resulting in a discontinuous pressure field. The treatment of hexahedral elements which are cut by the interface is shown. In contrast to linear tetrahedral elements, ...
متن کاملOn Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) for Modelling of Organ Deformations Associated with Surgical Cuts
The Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) is a technique used in fracture mechanics to predict how objects deform as cracks form and propagate through them. Here, we propose the use of XFEM to model the deformations resulting from cutting through organ tissues. We show that XFEM has the potential for being the technique of choice for modelling tissue retraction and resection during surgery. Can...
متن کاملBone Fracture Analysis Using the Extended Finite Element Method (xfem) with Abaqus
The bones of elderly people with osteoporosis are susceptible to either traumatic fracture as a result of external impact, such as what happens during a fall, or even spontaneous fracture without trauma as a result of muscle contraction [1, 2]. Understanding the fracture behavior of bone tissue will help researchers find proper treatments to strengthen the bone in order to prevent such fracture...
