A guide to the design of the virtual element methods for second- and fourth-order partial differential equations

We discuss the design and implementation details of two conforming virtual element methods for the numerical approximation of two partial differential equations that emerge in phase-field modeling of fracture propagation in elastic material. The two partial differential equations are: (i) a linear h...
