## Abstract The extended finite element method (XFEM) is applied to the simulation of thermally stressed, cracked solids. Both thermal and mechanical fields are enriched in the XFEM way in order to represent discontinuous temperature, heat flux, displacement, and traction across the crack surface,

Quadratic isoparametric elements which embody the inverse square root singularity are used in the calculation of stress intensity factors of elastic fracture mechanics. Examples of the plane eight noded isoparametric element show that it has the same singularity as other special crack tip elements,
## ANTICIPATING a successful Third International Conference on Fracture (Munich, April 1973), ISD plans to host a follow-up meeting for those who are interested in the application of the finite element method to fracture mechanics. The program will be organized as an informal workshop, including s
An elastodynamic hybrid-displacement finite element model is developed to deal with problems involving bi-material cracked structures subjected to dynamic loadings. Based on a modified Hamilton's principle with relaxed continuity requirements for displacements at the interelement boundary, the mass
