ISOGEOMETRIC FAILURE ANALYSIS
Summary The isogeometric method is a versatile tool for failure analysis. On one hand, the high-order continuity enables a natural incorporation of continuum constitutive relations that incorporate higher-order strain gradients, as in gradient plasticity or damage. On the other hand, the possibility of enhancing a T-spline basis with discontinuities by means of knot insertion makes isogeometric finite elements a suitable candidate for modeling discrete cracks. Both possibilities are described and will be illustrated by examples.
