Development of numerical manifold method for cracking process in rock

In this thesis, the numerical manifold method (NMM) has been extended for cracking problems, such as crack initiation, crack propagation, crack coalescence and structure safety problems associated with cracks. Different failure criteria have been employed to predict the crack initiation and propagat...
