In this paper, the extended finite element method (XFEM) is used for a discrete crack simulation of concrete using an adaptive crack growth algorithm. Different criteria for predicting the direction of the extension of a cohesive crack are investigated in the context of the XFEM. The robustness of t
A new method of representing the steel in finite element analyses of reinforced concrete structures is described in which the steel and the concrete are analysed separately. The forces between the steel and concrete are used in an iterative method which brings the two solutions together. The method
