A numerical code for modeling crack propagation using the Cell Method is proposed. The Leon failure surface is used to compute the direction of crack propagation, and the new crack geometry is realized by an intra-element propagation technique. Automatic remeshing is then activated. Applications in Mode I, Mode II and Mixed Mode are presented to illustrate the robustness of the implementation.

Abstract
A numerical code for modeling crack propagation using the Cell Method is proposed. The Leon failure surface is used to compute the direction of crack propagation, and the new crack geometry is realized by an intra-element propagation technique. Automatic remeshing is then activated. Applications in Mode I, Mode II and Mixed Mode are presented to illustrate the robustness of the implementation.File in questo prodotto:
