Numerical simulation of fatigue crack propagation in heterogeneous geomaterials under varied loads using displacement discontinuity method
Heterogeneous brittle geomaterials are highly susceptible to cyclic loads. They contain inherent flaws and cracks that grow under fatigue loads and lead to failure. This study presents a numerical model for analyzing fatigue in these materials based on the two-dimensional (2D) boundary element metho...
