Abstract

Numerical techniques for the simulations of crack propagation are reviewed. This paper highlights the meshless methods as a potential method for the simulations. thus they are reviewed deeply. Especially the theoretical aspects of meshless methods are discussed. and it is shown that all meshless methods are based on the PUM and unified in GFEM even though they are originated from different sources.
