  6. Global enrichment XFEM Motivation Motivation ◮ XFEM for industrially relevant (3D) crack problems ◮ Requires robust methods for stress intensity evaluation. ◮ Requires low solution times and ease of use. ◮ but standard XFEM leads to ◮ Ill-conditioning of the stiffness matrix for “large” enrichment domains. ◮ Lack of smoothness and accuracy of the stress intensity factor field along the crack front. ◮ Blending issues close at the boundary of the enriched region. ◮ Problem size for propagating cracks (“old” front-dofs must be kept for stability of time integration schemes). K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 6 / 82

  7. Global enrichment XFEM Motivation Global enrichment XFEM There exists different approaches to alleviate the above difficulties: ◮ Preconditioning (e.g. Mo¨ es; Menk and Bordas) ◮ Ghost penalty (Burman) ◮ Stable XFEM/GFEM (Banerjee, Duarte, Babuˇ ska, Paladim, Bordas) - behaviour for realistic 3D crack not clear. ◮ Corrected XFEM/GFEM (Fries, Loehnert) ◮ SIF-oriented (goal-oriented) error estimation methods for SIFs (R´ odenas, Estrada, Ladev` eze, Chamoin, Bordas) ◮ Restrict the variability of the enrichment within the enriched domain: doc-gathering, cut-off XFEM (Laborde, Renard, Chahine, Sal¨ un and the French team ;-) K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 7 / 82

  8. Global enrichment XFEM Motivation Global enrichment XFEM An XFEM variant is introduced which: ◮ Extends dof gathering to 3D through global enrichment. ◮ Employs point-wise matching of displacements. ◮ Employs integral matching of displacements. ◮ Enables the application of geometrical enrichment to 3D. K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 8 / 82

  9. Global enrichment XFEM Related works Related works Similar concepts to the ones introduced herein can be found: ◮ In the work of Laborde et al. → dof gathering → point-wise matching (Laborde, Pommier, Renard, & Sala¨ un, 2005) ◮ In the work of Chahine et al. → integral matching (Chahine, Laborde, & Renard, 2011) K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 9 / 82

  10. Global enrichment XFEM Related works Related works ◮ In the work of Langlois et al. → discretization along the crack front (Langlois, Gravouil, Baieto, & R´ ethor´ e, 2014) ◮ In the s-finite element method → superimposed mesh (Fish, 1992) K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 10 / 82

  11. Global enrichment XFEM Crack representation Crack representation Level set functions: ◮ φ ( x ) is the signed distance from the crack surface. ◮ ψ ( x ) is a signed distance function such that: → ∇ φ · ∇ ψ = 0 → φ ( x ) = 0 and ψ ( x ) = 0 defines the crack front Polar coordinates: � φ � � φ 2 + ψ 2 , r = θ = arctan ψ K.

  13. Global enrichment XFEM Tip enrichment Tip enrichment Enriched part of the approximation for tip elements: N g � � u te ( x ) = K ( x ) F j ( x ) c Kj j K N g K are the global shape functions to be defined. Tip enrichment functions: � √ r sin θ 2 , √ r cos θ 2 , √ r sin θ 2 sin θ, √ r cos θ � F j ( x ) ≡ F j ( r , θ ) = 2 sin θ K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 13 / 82

  14. Global enrichment XFEM Tip enrichment Geometrical enrichment ◮ Enrichment radius r e is defined. ◮ Nodal values r i of variable r are computed. ◮ The condition r i < r e is tested. ◮ If true for all nodes of an element, the element is tip enriched. K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 14 / 82

  16. Global enrichment XFEM Jump enrichment Enrichment strategy Motivation for an alternative enrichment strategy: ◮ Tip enrichment functions are derived from the first term of the Williams expansion. ◮ Displacements consist of higher order terms as well. ◮ Those terms are represented by: → the FE part → spatial variation of the tip enrichment functions K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 16 / 82

  17. Global enrichment XFEM Jump enrichment Enrichment strategy ◮ In the proposed method: → no spatial variation is allowed → higher order terms can only be approximated by the FE part ◮ Higher order displacement jumps can not be represented in tip elements. K. Agathos et al. GE-XFEM 2015 17 / 82
