Extended finite element method for computing stress intensity factors
Extended finite element method (XFEM) was introduced in the late '90s to enable crack propagation modeling in elastic continua
with minimal remeshing effort. A priori error estimates for 2D linear elastic problems are reviewed and numerically validated.
