FEMME: A multi-scale Finite Element Microstructure MEshfree fracture model for quasi-brittle materials with complex microstructures

In this paper we develop a very efficient Finite Element Microstructure MEshfree (FEMME) method to account for the effect of microstructure on quasi-brittle properties within finite element simulations of damage, improving the accuracy and computational cost of calculations at engineering length-sca...
