Implementation of a parallel finite-element library: Test case on a non-local continuum damage model
New finite-element code based on a hybrid object/vector design. Parallel implementation showing a close to perfect scalability on integral type localization limiter algorithms. Results in agreement with theoretical predictions and comparable to other numerical approaches in terms of energies and fragments shapes are obtained with an explicit time-integration scheme and non-local continuum damage.
