## 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,
## Abstract The need to assess quantitatively the safety of waste repositories in deep geological media has fostered the development of efficient numerical models of groundwater flow and contaminant transport in fractured media. These models usually account for water flow through fracture zones emb
