An introduction of boundary element method to the analysis of crack propagat ion in concrete

The dual boundary element method (DBEM) incorporated with fictitious crack model (FCM) is used to analyse and simulate the crack propagation .in concrete. The fractu re in concrete is represented by the FCM in which the fra ctur e zone is replaced by applying closing forces on both crack surfaces ....
