Spacetime simulation of dynamic fracture with crack closure and frictional sliding

Abstract We combine the asynchronous spacetime discontinuous Galerkin (aSDG) method, an interfacial-damage fracture model, and a dynamic contact model to simulate dynamic fracture and crack closure in brittle materials. The contact model enforces specialized Riemann solutions for bonded, separation,...
