Abstract
A combination of sub-partition and substructure methods in finite element is developed to simulate the crack propagation in plate and shell structures. This method allows modeling arbitrary shape crack independent of element mesh and only the elements overlapping crack need to be operated. An element cut apart by a crack is sub-partitioned into ordinary sub-elements while an element enveloping crack tip is sub-partitioned into several singular...
