Taumaturgo Mororo, L.A. (author)Developing accurate and robust numerical approaches that are capable of modeling fracture in solids has been a challenging undertaking in the computational mechanics community for decades. Models based on a continuous formulation or on a discontinuous one have been proposed by numerous authors, expanding upon abilities and disadvantages of these...doctoral thesis 2023

Taumaturgo Mororo, L.A. (author), van der Meer, F.P. (author)The Thick Level Set (TLS) method has been proposed as a new approach to the modeling of damage growth in solids. The fronts of damaged zones are implicitly represented as a level set of an auxiliary field whose evolution is accomplished by the level set method. The TLS model contains a characteristic length to obtain a non-local description...journal article 2020
