Journal Article
Rocha, M., Trevelyan, J., & Leonel, E. D. (2025). Fatigue growth modelling of three-dimensional cracks with the extended isogeometric boundary element method. Engineering Analysis with Boundary Elements, 177, Article 106263. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enganabound.2025.106263

This paper proposes the fatigue crack growth modelling of three-dimensional geometries with the eXtended Isogeometric Boundary Element Method (XIGABEM). The formulation combines the advantages of the dual Boundary Element Method (BEM), the isogeometr...

An extended isogeometric boundary element formulation for three-dimensional linear elastic fracture mechanics (2024)
Journal Article
Rocha, M., Trevelyan, J., & Leonel, E. D. (2024). An extended isogeometric boundary element formulation for three-dimensional linear elastic fracture mechanics. Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 423, Article 116872. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cma.2024.116872

This paper presents a novel extended isogeometric boundary element formulation (XIGABEM) for three-dimensional linear elastic fracture mechanics. The formulation utilises the Dual BEM to accommodate coincident geometries for opposin...
