• Discrete cohesive zone model for mixed-mode fracture using finite element analysis (2006, methodology): “It can be computed by the virtual crack closure technique (VCCT) [ 2 ], in conjunction with FE analysis.”
• Progressive crack growth analysis using interface element based on the virtual crack closure technique (2006, unknown): “Based on this idea, the authors also proposed an algorithm to trace a moving crack front using 3D-VCCT in an interface element so that growth of cracks with arbitrary shape can be simulated by the direct fracture mechanics approach using stationary meshes [ 40 ,41].”
