An extended isogeometric element formulation (XIGA) for analysis of through-the-thickness
cracks in thin shell structures is developed. The discretization is based on Non-Uniform …

An inverse algorithm based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) and Radial Basis
Functions (RBF) for single and multiple cracks identification in plate structures is presented …

We present a novel numerical method to simulate crack growth in 3D, directly from the
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) geometry of the component, without any mesh generation …

An overview of computational methods to model fracture in brittle and quasi‐brittle materials
is given. The overview focuses on continuum models for fracture. First, numerical difficulties …

We present a Nitche's method to couple non-conforming two and three-dimensional non
uniform rational b-splines (NURBS) patches in the context of isogeometric analysis. We …

Fracture analysis of orthotropic cracked media is investigated by applying the recently
developed extended isogeometric analysis (XIGA)(Ghorashi et al., 2012) using the T-spline …
