Application of extended finite element method for plastic hinges and yield lines analysis
The application of extended finite element method (XFEM) formulation for nonlinear structural analyses is presented in this thesis. It aims to capture accurately the elastic response of a beam with an internal pin connection and the elasto-plastic response of a beam or a plate structure at a relativ...
