X-FEM implementation in Abaqus
Dear all,
Just in case it is of interest to some of you, we provide links to three postprints related to our Abaqus implementation of the X-FEM. The latest is an "article in press" in Eng Frac Mech where we explain the essentials of the implementation and provide a link to the source code for the Abaqus computation. Note that the implementation is limited to 2D and the pre-processing code needed for element subdivision is not provided.
The other papers are an application to crack growth under fretting fatigue conditions (published in IJSS) and a specific enrichment of the singularity of a sliding corner (published in IJNME). We hope that these three publications may be helpful.

Best regards,

Nice job!
Eugenio,
Thank you for sharing with us this interesting work. I would really like to learn how to use X-FEM within ABAQUS.

That's wonderful..
THanks a lot for compiling such a nice article for XFEM applications using Abaqus..
Great
Thanks a lot. These articles are very useful for me. I just started studying about how to implement xfem in abaqus.
its very useful thanks
its very useful thanks good continuation.me too im a new doctorat ,i ll simulate the crack growth using XEFM+abaqus
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing with us this nice work. And I am very interested in this.
