description: We study the renormalization group evolution up to the fixed point of the lattice topological susceptibility in the 2-d O(3) non-linear sigma-model. We start with a discretization of the continuum topological charge by a local charge density, polynomial in the lattice fields. Among the different choices we propose also a Symanzik--improved lattice topological charge. We check step by step in the renormalization group iteration the progressive dumping of quantum fluctuations, which are responsible for the additive and multiplicative renormalizations of the lattice topological susceptibility with respect to the continuum definition. We find that already after three iterations these renormalizations are negligible and an excellent approximation of the fixed point is achieved. We also check by an explicit calculation that the assumption of slowly varying fields in iterating the renormalization group does not lead to a good approximation of the fixed point charge operator.

Interstellar Matter and the Boundary Conditions of the Heliosphere

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The interstellar cloud surrounding the solar system regulates the galactic environment of the Sun, and determines the boundary conditions of the heliosphere. Both the Sun and interstellar clouds move through space, so these boundary conditions change with time. Data and theoretical models now support densities in the cloud surrounding the solar system of n(HI)=0.22+/-0.06 cm^-3, and n(e-)~0.1 cm-3, with larger values allowed for n(HI) by radiative transfer considerations. Ulysses and Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer satellite HeI data yield a cloud temperature of 6,400 K. Nearby interstellar gas appears to be structured and inhomogeneous. The interstellar gas in the Local Fluff cloud complex exhibits elemental abundance patterns in which refractory elements are enhanced over the depleted abundances found in cold disk gas. Within a few parsecs of the Sun, inconclusive evidence for factors of 2--5 variation in MgII and FeII gas phase abundances is found, providing evidence for variable grain destruction. Observations of the hydrogen pile-up at the nose of the heliosphere are consistent with a barely subsonic motion of the heliosphere with respect to the surrounding interstellar cloud. Uncertainties on the velocity vector of the cloud that surrounds the solar system indicate that it is uncertain as to whether the Sun and alpha Cen are or are not immersed in the same interstellar cloud.

description: We simulate lattice QCD at non--zero baryon density and zero temperature in the quenched approximation, both in the scaling region and in the infinite coupling limit. We investigate the nature of the forbidden region -- the range of chemical potential where the simulations grow prohibitively expensive, and the results, when available, are puzzling if not unphysical. At weak coupling we have explored the sensitivity of these pathologies to the lattice size, and found that using a large lattice ($64 \times 16^3$) does not remove them. The effective potential sheds considerable light on the problems in the simulations, and gives a clear interpretation of the forbidden region. The strong coupling simulations were particularly illuminating on this point.

Design and synthesis of selective CDK7 inhibitors
Creators: name: Bondke, Alexander
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Cyclin-dependent protein kinases (CDKs) have a central role in the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis and gene expression. CDK7, in particular, not only regulates the activation of the cell cycle kinases CDK1, CDK2, CDK4 and CDK6, but is also involved in the regulation of transcription as part of the transcription factor TFIIH-complex. While a common feature of cancer is the over-expression of cyclin, there is compelling evidence that CDK2, CDK4 and CDK6 are not essential for the cell cycle, making CDK7 a highly attractive target for anti-cancer drug development. The two pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine kinase inhibitors BS181 and BS194 were chosen as starting points for the development of a CDK7 selective drug candidate. BS181 is a selective CDK7 inhibitor (IC50: 21 nM) that shows moderate growth inhibition in the MCF7 breast cancer cell line (GI50: 15 μM) as well as in the HCT116 colorectal carcinoma cell line (GI50: 16 μM). The compound suffers from an insufficient oral bioavailability and a poor pharmacokinetic profile. The biological data of the second lead compound BS194 are significantly different: it is a CDK2 pan-inhibitor (IC50: 3 nM) with excellent growth inhibition in MCF7 (GI50: 0.12 μM) and in HCT116 cancer cells (GI50: 0.12 μM). The compound is highly bioavailable and has a good PK profile. The properties of BS181 and BS194 needed to be ‘merged’ to create a CDK7 selective compound with good overall properties. The multidimensional optimisation of both compounds was driven by iterative circles of computer-aided drug design (CADD), synthesis and biological assessment. Thus, analogues with highly functionalised northern, southern and eastern side chains as well as a novel series of 2,4-diaminopyrimidine kinase inhibitors were designed and subsequently synthesised.

description: In this paper we study Maxwell lattices with non-rectilinear constraints, where the elastic energy is determined by the collective motion of three or more particles, in contrast to a rectilinear spring whose elastic energy only relies on the displacement of two particles attached to the two ends of the spring. Utilizing polygon-shaped constraints, we found that the Maxwell counting argument and the topological construction, based on the compatibility matrix and the equilibrium matrix, can be generalized in our models, and our elastic systems follow the same topological classification. In addition, we also found that non-rectilinear constraints offers a natural pass towards topological states with higher topological indices and multiple edge states, which can be achieved even for a simple unit cell with one degree of freedom per unit cell without enlarging the unit cell in the bulk or at the edge.

Shear stress and interferon regulatory gactor 5 modulate myeloid cell behaviour in atherosclerosis
Creators: name: Seneviratne, Anusha Nilanthi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Rupture of “vulnerable” atherosclerotic plaques and subsequent thrombosis cause acute cardiovascular events, and can develop upon exposure of the arterial wall to low shear stress. Myeloid cells - the main inflammatory cells within atherosclerotic plaques - are heterogeneous; ranging from “classical” pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages to “alternative” M2 macrophages and various subsets of dendritic cells. The activation of Toll-like receptors and downstream Interferon Regulatory Factors (IRFs) is involved in atherosclerosis. IRF5 polarises macrophages towards the M1 phenotype and modulates cytokine production by dendritic cells. I utilised two murine models of atherosclerosis: the hypercholesterolaemic ApoE-/- (Apolipoprotein E knockout) mouse strain, and a perivascular cast modifying shear stress patterns in the carotid artery. Firstly, I found the majority of macrophages in early and intermediate lesions of the aortic root and advanced oscillatory shear stress-modulated lesions express heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). The representation of the M1 macrophage marker iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) and IRF5 is more prevalent in low shear stress-modulated plaques, which resemble a vulnerable plaque, while M2 macrophage markers are elevated in oscillatory shear stress-modulated plaques resembling stable plaques. Secondly, I studied the effect of IRF5 deletion on the development of atherosclerosis by comparing the severity of atherosclerosis in ApoE-/- mice with ApoE-/-IRF5-/- mice. Atherosclerotic lesions in the aortic root of ApoE-/-IRF5-/- mice are reduced in size, and in all vascular regions they have smaller necrotic cores (a marker of plaque vulnerability), due to a reduction in efferocytosis, and an increase in atheroprotective macrophages. Lesions in ApoE-/-IRF5-/- mice also have a depleted content of cells expressing CD11c; therefore IRF5 is detrimental in atherosclerosis by skewing myeloid cell differentiation towards dendritic cells possibly via GM-CSF. My study provides a novel link between inflammatory signalling, efferocytosis and necrotic core formation.

description: In anticipation of upcoming gravitational wave experiments, we provide a comprehensive overview of the spectra predicted by phase transitions triggered by states from a large variety of dark sector models. Such spectra are functions of the quantum numbers and (self-) couplings of the scalar that triggers the dark phase transition. We classify dark sectors that give rise to a first order phase transition and perform a numerical scan over the thermal parameter space. We then characterize scenarios in which a measurement of a new source of gravitational waves could allow us to discriminate between models with differing particle content.

description: In this paper, the third of a series dedicated to the investigation of the nuclear properties of spiral galaxies, we have (i) modelled the WFPC2 F606W nuclear surface brightness profiles of 41 spiral galaxies presented in Carollo et al. 1997c, 1998 with the analytical law introduced by Lauer et al. 1995, and (ii) deprojected these surface brightness profiles and their analytical fits, so as to estimate the nuclear stellar densities of bulges of spiral galaxies. We find that the nuclear stellar cusps (quantified by the average logarithmic slope of the surface brightness profiles within 0.1''-0.5'') are significantly different for R^1/4-law and exponential bulges. The former have nuclear properties similar to those of early-type galaxies, i.e. similar values of nuclear cusps for comparable luminosities, and increasingly steeper stellar cusps with decreasing luminosity. By contrast, exponential bulges have (underlying the light contribution from photometrically distinct, central compact sources) comparative shallower stellar cusps, and likely lower nuclear densities, than R^1/4-law bulges.

description: This paper presents an algorithm to simulate Gaussian random vectors whose precision matrix can be expressed as a polynomial of a sparse matrix. This situation arises in particular when simulating Gaussian Markov random fields obtained by the discretization by finite elements of the solutions of some stochastic partial derivative equations. The proposed algorithm uses a Chebyshev polynomial approximation to compute simulated vectors with a linear complexity. This method is asymptotically exact as the approximation order grows. Criteria based on tests of the statistical properties of the produced vectors are derived to determine minimal orders of approximation.

The non-relativistic kinetic energy term of the heavy quark is included to the action as well as terms remaining in the infinite quark mass limit. The classical velocity of the heavy quark is renormalized on the lattice and we determine the renormalized velocity non-perturbatively using the energy-momentum dispersion relation. The slope parameter of the Isgur-Wise function at zero recoil is obtained at $β=6.0$ on a $24^3\times 48$ lattice for three values of $m_{Q}$.

REACTION OF PROFAMILY DEFENDERS TO THE ACTIVITIES OF THE LGBT COMMUNITY OF UKRAINE

Publisher: name: Norwegian Journal of Development of the International Science
Year: 2021
Subjects: LGBT

description: The relevance of the study is due to the existing polemical approach to the activities of LGBT communities in Ukraine on the part of pro-family activists. The purpose of the article is to try to analyze the positions of the defenders of traditional forms of the family, to understand their main slogans and the reasons for insisting on their own convictions. The work presents a cross-section of the main topics of discourses that were initiated by Ukrain-ian theologians and leaders of Protestant denominations. It was found that Ukrainian pro-family activists have not yet developed a unified position on the EU's demands to grant the same rights to people who practice non-tradi-tional forms of relations. It was determined that in Ukraine there are three positions of attitude towards LGBT communities: complete rejection, the desire to correct the "defect", that is, to help a person understand the correct path or ignore. It was found that the European integration processes shook the Ukrainian institution of the family, but at the same time contributed to the fact that activists, family defenders made attempts to create a kind of dialogue among themselves in order to find a compromise between the preservation of Christian moral values and the requirements of the European Union. However, the existing conflict between the parties of pro-family defend-ers in relation to LGBT communities did not allow us to propose a unified position. Therefore, the question of the attitude towards LGBT people in Ukraine remains open so far.

description: In this paper we demonstrate for the first time the connection between the spatial and temporal progression of star formation and the changing locations of the very dense regions in the gas of a massive disk galaxy (NGC 1144) in the aftermath of its collision with a massive elliptical (NGC 1143). These two galaxies form the combined object Arp 118, a collisional ring galaxy system. The results of 3D, time-dependent, numerical simulations of the behavior of the gas, stars, and dark matter of a disk galaxy and the stars and dark matter in an elliptical during a collision are compared with multiwavelength observations of Arp 118. The collision that took place approximately 22 Myr ago generated a strong, non-linear density wave in the stars and gas in the disk of NGC 1144, causing the gas to became clumped on a large scale. This wave produced a series of superstarclusters along arcs and rings that emanate from the central point of impact in the disk. The locations of these star forming regions match those of the regions of increased gas density predicted the time sequence of models. The models also predict the large velocity gradients observed across the disk of NGC 1144. These are due to the rapid radial outflow of gas coupled to large azimuthal velocities in the expanding ring, caused by the impact of the massive intruder.

description: A crucial issue associated with public debt occurred when the indebted countries could not meet their current financial obligations. This paper aims to present an overview for assessing public debt and, more generally, sus-tainability, briefly giving its contents and the main drawbacks and problems from its practical application in the Republic of Armenia. Based on time-series data for 2000-2020, research is done with using the OLS, IVREG and Newey-West models. According to our estimations, in the long run, that debt's primary balance in Armenia might change into a negative relationship. This can cause unsustainable debt, and Armenia should start looking for this not to face such a crisis shortly.

RXTE Measurement of the Diffuse X-ray Emission From the Galactic Ridge: Implications for the Energetics of the Interstellar Medium
Creators: name: Valinia, Azita

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: (Abridged) The diffuse X-ray emission from the thin disk surrounding the Galactic mid-plane (the so-called Galactic ridge) was measured with RXTE PCA in order to determine the spatial extent, spectral nature, and origin of the emission. Spatial examination of the diffuse emission in the central 30 deg of the plane in Galactic longitude reveals the presence of two components: a thin disk of full width less than 0.5 deg centered roughly on the Galactic mid-plane, and a broad component which can be approximated as a Gaussian distribution with FWHM of about 4 deg. Spectral examination of the emission clearly reveals the presence of a hard power law tail above 10 keV and an emission line from He-like iron, indicating both thermal and possibly non-thermal origins for the diffuse emission. The averaged spectrum from the ridge in the 3-35 keV band can be modelled with a Raymond-Smith plasma component of temperature ~2-3 keV and a power law component of photon index ~1.8. Based on this finding, we argue that the temperature of the hot phase of the Interstellar Medium (ISM) is less than the previously reported values of 5-15 keV. We find that a SN explosion rate of less than 5 per century is adequate to power the thermal emission from the ridge. We speculate that bremsstrahlung of accelerated electrons and protons in SNR sites can play a significant role in producing the hard tail of the spectrum. Moreover, their collisional losses can play a major role in the ionization of the ISM.

The low-energy flavor structure of our set-up originates from two $SU(5)$ operators that relate Yukawa couplings of the two leptoquarks. The proposed scenario has a UV completion, can accommodate all measured lepton flavor universality ratios in $B$-meson decays, is consistent with related flavor observables, and is compatible with direct searches at the LHC. We provide prospects for future discoveries of the two light leptoquarks at the LHC and predict several yet-to-be-measured flavor observables.

description: The noble elements, argon and xenon, are frequently employed as the target and event detector for weakly interacting particles such as neutrinos and Dark Matter. For such rare processes, background radiation must be carefully minimized. Radon provides one of the most significant contaminants since it is an inevitable product of trace amounts of natural uranium. To design a purification system for reducing such contamination, the adsorption characteristics of radon in nitrogen, argon, and xenon carrier gases on various types of charcoals with different adsorbing properties and intrinsic radioactive purities have been studied in the temperature range of 190-295 K at flow rates of 0.5 and 2 standard liters per minute. Essential performance parameters for the various charcoals include the average breakthrough times ($τ$), dynamic adsorption coefficients (k$_a$) and the number of theoretical stages (n). It is shown that the k$_a$-values for radon in nitrogen, argon, and xenon increase as the temperature of the charcoal traps decreases, and that they are significantly larger in nitrogen and argon than in xenon gas due to adsorption saturation effects. It is found that, unlike in xenon, the dynamic adsorption coefficients for radon in nitrogen and argon strictly obey the Arrhenius law. The experimental results strongly indicate that nitric acid etched Saratech is the best candidate among all used charcoal brands. It allows reducing total radon concentration in the LZ liquid Xe detector to meet the ultimate goal in the search for Dark Matter.

description: We investigated numerically an Ising model coupled to two-dimensional Euclidean gravity with spherical topology, using Regge calculus with the $dl/l$ path-integral measure to discretize the gravitational interaction. Previous studies of this system with toroidal topology have shown that the critical behavior of the Ising model remains in the flat-space Onsager universality class, contrary to the predictions of conformal field theory and matrix models. Implementing the spherical topology as triangulated surfaces of three-dimensional cubes, we find again strong evidence that the critical exponents of the Ising transition are consistent with the Onsager values, and that KPZ exponents are definitely excluded.

description: HBED-CC (N,N'-Bis[2-hydroxy-5-(carboxyethyl)benzyl]ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetic acid, L1) is a common bifunctional chelating agent in preparation of 68Ga-radiopharmaceuticals. Due to its high stability constant for the Ga3+ complex (logKGaL = 38.5) and its acyclic structure, it is well known for a rapid and efficient radiolabelling at ambient temperature with Gallium-68 and its high in vivo stability. [99 mTc][Tc(CO)3(H2O)3]+ is an excellent precursor for radiolabelling of biomolecules. The aim of this study was to develop a novel preparation method of 99 mTc-HBED-CC complexes. In this study, HBED-CC-NI (2,2'-(ethane-1,2-diylbis((2-hydroxy-5-(3-((2-(2-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl)amino)-3-oxopropyl)benzyl)-azanediyl))-diacetic acid, L2), a derivative of HBED-CC, was designed and synthesized. Both L1 and L2 were radiolabelled by [99 mTc][Tc(CO)3(H2O)3]+ successfully for the first time. In order to explore the coordination mode of metal and chelates, non-radioactive Re(CO)3L1 and Re(CO)3L2 were synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. Tc(CO)3L1 and Tc(CO)3L2 in solution were calculated by density functional theory and were analysed with radio-HPLC chromatograms. It showed that [99 mTc]Tc(CO)3L2 forms two stable diastereomers in solution, which is similar to those of [68Ga]Ga-HBED-CC complexes. Natural bond orbital analysis through the natural population charges revealed a charge transfer between [99 mTc][Tc(CO)3]+ and L1 or L2. The experimental results showed that tricarbonyl technetium might form stable complex with HBED-CC derivatives, which is useful for the future application of using HBED-CC as a bifunctional chelating agent in developing new 99 mTc-radiopharmaceuticals as diagnostic imaging agents.

description: A novel notion for constructing a well-balanced scheme --- a gradient-robust scheme --- is introduced and a showcase application for a steady compressible, isothermal Stokes equations is presented. Gradient-robustness means that arbitrary gradient fields in the momentum balance are well-balanced by the discrete pressure gradient --- if there is enough mass in the system to compensate the force. The scheme is asymptotic-preserving in the sense that it degenerates for low Mach numbers to a recent inf-sup stable and pressure-robust discretization for the incompressible Stokes equations. The convergence of the coupled FEM-FVM scheme for the nonlinear, isothermal Stokes equations is proved by compactness arguments. Numerical examples illustrate the numerical analysis, and show that the novel approach can lead to a dramatically increased accuracy in nearly-hydrostatic low Mach number flows. Numerical examples also suggest that a straight-forward extension to barotropic situations with nonlinear equations of state is feasible.

description: Using the scheme of Delaunay and Gabriel graphs, we analyzed the amorphous structures of computationally created Nd-Fe alloys for several composition ratios based on melt quench simulations with finite temperature first-principles molecular dynamics.By the comparison of the radial distribution functions of the whole system and those derived from the Delaunay and Gabriel graphs, it was shown that the Gabriel graphs represent the first nearest neighbor networks well in the examined amorphous systems. From the Gabriel graph analyses, we examined the coordination structures of amorphous Nd-Fe alloys statistically. We found that the ranges of distributions of coordination numbers vary depending on the composition ratio. The angular distributions among three adjacent atoms were also analyzed, and it was found that the angular distributions behave differently in the Nd-rich and Fe-rich samples. We found that the orders in the amorphous system becomes stronger as increasing the Nd ratio, which corresponds to the appearance of crystalline grain boundary phases at high Nd composition ratio [T. T. Sasaki et al., Acta Mater. 115, 269-277 (2016)].

description: We have imaged the nucleus of M32 at 1600 Angstroms (FUV) and 5500 Angstroms (V) using the Wide-Field/Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) aboard HST. We detected the nucleus at 1600 Angstroms using the redleak-free Woods filter on WFPC2. The FUV light profile can be fit with a Gaussian of FWHM 0.46" (4.6 pixels), but cannot be resolved into individual stars; no UV-bright nuclear structure was detected. The (FUV-V) color of the nucleus is 4.9 +/- 0.3, consistent with earlier observations. We are unable to confirm any radial variation in (FUV-V) within 0.8" of the nucleus; beyond that radius the FUV surface brightness drops below our detection threshhold. We also performed surface photometry in V and found our results to be in excellent agreement with deconvolved, WFPC1 results. M32's light profile continues to rise in a nuclear cusp even within 0.1" of its center. No intermediate-age stellar population is required by evolutionary population synthesis models to reproduce the (FUV-V) color of the nucleus, although these data and current models are insufficient to resolve this issue.

description: We analyze the chiral behavior of the hadron spectrum obtained with quenched Wilson fermions on 170 $32^3 \times 64$ lattices at $β= 6.0$. We calculate masses of hadrons composed of both degenerate and non-degenerate quarks. We reduce the statistical errors in mass splittings by directly fitting to the ratio of correlation functions. We find significant deviations from a linear dependence on the quark mass, deviations that are consistent with the higher order terms predicted by quenched chiral perturbation theory. Including these corrections yields splittings in the baryon octet that agree with those observed experimentally. Smaller higher order terms are also present in $m_ρ$ and $m_N$. By contrast, the decuplet baryons are well described by a linear mass term. We find the decuplet splittings to be 30% smaller than experiment. We extrapolate our data to $a \to 0$ by combining with the GF11 results, and the best fit suggests that the quenched approximation is only good to $10-15%$.

Near-well effects in carbon dioxide storage in saline aquifers

description: Carbon capture and storage, that is the collection of carbon dioxide (CO2) from power plants and its injection underground, is an important technology for reducing CO2 emissions to the atmosphere and hence, mitigating climate change. A key aspect of CO2 storage is the injection rate into the subsurface, which is limited by the pressure at which formation starts to fracture. Hence, it is vital to assess all of the relevant processes that may contribute to the pressure increase in the aquifer during CO2 injection. The central aim of this study is to analyse the ability of the near-well region of a saline formation to conduct fluids, using a set of analytical solutions that enable quick and reliable assessment of CO2 injectivity. In this research, the near-well fluid flow was assumed to be a function of the non-Darcy flow parameter as defined by the Forchheimer equation. For the analysis of single-phase flow problems, the analytical solution for the Forchheimer flow in closed domains was derived and an alternative method for applying analytical solutions associated with a single well to multiple well systems was proposed. The CO2 injection process was modelled as a two-phase system where the non-Darcy flow was assumed for the gas phase only, including a novel representation of the spatially varying fractional flow function. The solution for immiscible flow was further developed to model compositional displacements, which enabled analysis of the porosity reduction due to salt precipitation in a near-well region. Finally, the effects of gas compressibility were examined by integrating the analytical model with an iterative algorithm for correcting gas properties. Results showed that in low permeability formations when CO2 is injected at high rates non-Darcy flow conditions are more favourable for CO2 storage than linear flow due to better displacement efficiency. This, however, came at the cost of increased well pressures. More favourable estimations of the pressure buildup were obtained when CO2 compressibility was taken into account because reservoir pressures were reduced due to the change in the gas phase properties. The non-Darcy flow resulted in a significant reduction in solid salt saturation values, with a positive effect on CO2 injectivity. In the examples shown, non-Darcy flow conditions may lead to significantly different pressure and saturation distributions in the near-well region, with potentially important implications for CO2 injectivity.
Modelling of Interfacial Problems at Various Length Scales in Polycrystalline Materials

description: The goal of this research project was to develop a modelling technique making it possible to simulate grain boundaries and inclusion-matrix material interfaces using numerical techniques. This is particularly of interest when investigating the effects of grain boundary sliding and decohesion of the material interfaces under hot deformation conditions. This can then be used to predict damage nucleation and growth at the grain boundaries applicable to both creep type damage and plasticity induced damage. A novel scheme was developed based on the Controlled Voronoi Poisson’s Tessellation technique (CVPT) to generate statistically equivalent microstructures based on the physical parameters of the microstructure in free cutting steel under hot forming conditions. The generated microstructure was then used to study the effect of different parameters on the global response of the material. Furthermore, this model was utilised to calibrate the crystal plasticity material model using the experimental data available for high strain rate deformation of free cutting steel at elevated temperatures. A micro-scale Representative Volume Element (RVE) was developed in which the grain boundaries and material interfaces have been represented by cohesive elements. The RVE consisting of an MnS inclusion surrounded by four austenitic grains was used to study the effect of inclusion orientation, grain orientations and the relative strength of grain boundaries and the matrix/inclusion interfaces on overall failure of the RVE. Furthermore, in the endeavour of finding the right modelling technique an extension to the conventional finite element method called XFEM proved to be capable of modelling strong and weak discontinuities independent of the FE mesh. The crystal plasticity material model was implemented in the open-source FE package OOFEM and was used to simulate interface decohesion and grain boundary motion using the XFEM technique.
