Abstract The traditional finite element method (FEM) often requires a large number of refined meshes to analyze the mechanical behavior of geometric discontinuities, its computational efficiency and convergence speed are affected. A FEM for crack propagation based on the combination of an adaptive remeshing technique with the multifunctional super singular element (MSSE) at the crack tip is proposed for the fracture process simulation of two-dimensional (2D) materials. The adaptive FEM for crack propagation divides the crack tip neighborhood into the MSSE region, the protection element (PE) region and the background element (BE) region. The MSSE is… More >
