A new technique for the finite element modeling of crack growth with frictional contact on the crack faces is presented. The eXtended Finite Element Method (X-FEM) is used to discretize the equations, allowing for the modeling of cracks whose geometry are independent of the finite element mesh. This
## Abstract In the present paper a new approach for the modelling of fatigue effects in skeletal muscle is proposed. This concept is micromechanically motivated. It incorporates the intramuscular connective tissue (passive part of the material) which surrounds the contractile muscle fibres (active
