Abstract
In this research, the extended finite element method (XFEM) in conjunction with the combined approximation (CA) is utilized for estimating the fatigue life of two-dimensional isotropic bodies under variable-amplitude loading. In the proposed method, called CA-XFEM, in addition to the fact that no re-meshing process is required, the crack growth path is determined without the need to solve the whole system of equations which these features...
