Enriched finite element methods : advances & applications
This thesis presents advances and applications of the eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM). The novelty of the XFEM is the enrichment of the primary variables in the elements intersected by the discontinuity surface by appropriate functions. The enrichment scheme carries the local behaviour of the...
