Computational modeling has emerged as a powerful tool for analyzing and predicting fracture mechanics in materials science and engineering. By leveraging numerical methods such as extended finite element methods, the cohesive zone method, peridynamics, and phase-field models, researchers can simulate crack initiation, propagation, branching, and the complex interactions between materials and external loads. These models integrate material properties, stress-strain relationships, and failure criteria to provide valuable insights into complex fracture phenomena that are challenging to study experimentally.
This special issue aims to highlight state-of-the-art techniques in computational fracture mechanics and their applications in engineering, material design, and failure analysis. Articles that present novel contributions, including new theoretical insights, method development, or applications are encouraged. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:
· Fracture mechanics
· Phase field methods
· Multiscale methods for fracture
· Computational methods for crack detection
· Composite materials
· Numerical methods
· Topological optimization
· Computational modelling
