Xu, Y.; Saigal, S. Element free Galerkin study of steady quasi-static crack growth in plane strain tension in elastic-plastic materials. (English) Zbl 0958.74074 Comput. Mech. 22, No. 3, 255-265 (1998). The authors develop an element free Galerkin formulation for steady quasistatic crack growth in elastic-plastic materials undergoing small scale yielding. A detailed numerical experimentation is presented, and a rough estimate of the range of validity of asymptotic solutions is established.
