Six-noded, isoparametric serendipity type quadrilateral regular/singular elements are used for the estimation of stress intensity factors (SIF) in linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) problems involving cracks in two-dimensional structural components. The square root singularity is achieved in t
## Abstract The development of a generalized quadrilateral finite element that includes a singular point at a corner node is presented. Interβelement conformability is maintained so that monotone convergence is preserved. The globalβlocal concept of finite elements is used to formulate the complete
In the paper, an ~vestigation into the stress intensity factors of mixed-mode three dimensional crack problem is studied. In the method presented in the paper, the number of elements and nodes can be decreased greatly while computational accuracy and efficiency increase, the continuous functions of
The quadratic isoparametric crack-tip elements proposed by R. E. Abdi and G. Valentin (Computers and Structures 33, 241}248) are reconsidered and a simpler method for calculating the optimal position of the side nodes proposed. Quadratic isoparametric transition elements for an r !1 (0( (1) strain s
