## Abstract A model which allows the introduction of displacements jumps to conventional finite elements is developed. The path of the discontinuity is completely independent of the mesh structure. Unlike soβcalled βembedded discontinuityβ models, which are based on incompatible strain modes, there

The modeling of magnetically lossy media in the finiteelement time-domain (FETD) method is substantially different from the simple treatment in the frequency-domain finite-element method. Two FETD formulations are presented and their numerical implementations are discussed. One is applicable to the
Continuum mechanics and the finite element method are used as basic tools to facilitate the animation of deformable objects. Two unique features in this paper are: (1) introduction of a framework for 3-D finite interface elements to deal with object interaction and (2) a simple approach to handle f
