FFT-based interface decohesion modelling by a nonlocal interphase

Abstract In this paper, two nonlocal approaches to incorporate interface damage in fast Fourier transform (FFT) based spectral methods are analysed. In FFT based methods, the discretisation is generally non-conforming to the interfaces and hence interface elements cannot be used. This limitation is...
