Abstract
The approach does not need predefined cracks and it can simulate curvilinear fracture paths, branching and even crack coalescence. Several examples are provided to explain the advantages and disadvantages of the method. The provided source codes and the tutorials make it easy for practicing engineers and scientists to model diffuse crack propagation in a familiar computational environment.
