Three-dimensional crack analyses under thermal stress field by XFEM using only the Heaviside step function

A three-dimensional crack analysis method based on XFEM using only the Heaviside step function was applied to heat transfer and subsequent thermal stress analyses of cracked structures. The proposed method employs tip elements to discretize the weak form governing equations using the approximation f...
