A comparative study on finite elements for capturing strong discontinuities by means of
elemental (E-FEM) or nodal enrichments (X-FEM) is presented. Based on the same …

A numerical model within the framework of a non‐symmetric strong discontinuity approach
(SDA) suitable for fracture simulations of plain concrete is presented. The model is based on …
