This toolbox has following features
- Energy based arc length control for mechanical solver
- Fully coupled fluid flow within matrix and along fracture with mechanical deformation
- Multiscale fracture propagation by coupling nonlocal damage with ppr cohesive zone model
Detailed description is documented in the following paper:
- Jin, Wencheng, and Chloé Arson. "Fluid driven transition from damage to fracture in anisotropic porous media - a multiscale XFEM approach." To be published in Acta Geotechnica.
