- ItemApproximation schemes for materials with discontinuities(Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2020) Bartels, Sören; Milicevic, Marijo; Thomas, Marita; Tornquist, Sven; Weber, NicoDamage and fracture phenomena are related to the evolution of discontinuities both in space and in time. This contribution deals with methods from mathematical and numerical analysis to handle these: Suitable mathematical formulations and time-discrete schemes for problems with discontinuities in time are presented. For the treatment of problems with discontinuities in space, the focus lies on FE-methods for minimization problems in the space of functions of bounded variation. The developed methods are used to introduce fully discrete schemes for a rate-independent damage model and for the viscous approximation of a model for dynamic phase-field fracture. Convergence of the schemes is discussed.
