Modelling large crack propagation: from gradient damage to cohesive zone models (2012, result): “Even though recent works propose some answers to the challenges (Gasser and Holzapfel 2006; Oliver and Huespe 2004a,b; Chiaruttini et al. 2011), industrial applications of cohesive zone models should still be restricted preferentially to configurations where potential crack paths may be stated a pri”
Element‐local level set method for three‐dimensional dynamic crack growth (2009, methodology): “Initially, our results coincide with the quasi-static results of Gasser and Holzapfel [21] and are oscillation-free.”
A comparative study on the modelling of discontinuous fracture by means of enriched nodal and element techniques and interface elements (2009, background): “Explanations for the differences could be the consideration of incorrect material parameters as well as spurious bending, leading to different crack paths at the front and rear faces of the specimen (Cervera and Chiumenti 2006; Pivonka et al. 2004; Gasser and Holzapfel 2006).”
hp‐Generalized FEM and crack surface representation for non‐planar 3‐D cracks (2009, background): “In these cases, engineering decisions must be based on accurate evaluation of crack front quantities such as energy release rate and stress intensity factors.”
A simple method for crack growth in mixed mode with X-FEM (2012, background): “In Gasser and Holzapfel (2006), the authors propose a non-local tracking algorithm: the predictor step computes a discontinuity and the corrector step modifies the orientation of the discontinuity by a smoothing algorithm.”

Microplane Model M7 for Plain Concrete. II: Calibration and Verification (2013, unknown): “7(b) compares the measured data to the curves of load versus gauge length displacement, as obtained by M7 and by other researchers (Gasser and Holzapfel 2006; Pivonka et al. 2004).”
Modeling three‐dimensional crack propagation—A comparison of crack path tracking strategies (2008, methodology): “Now the main idea of Gasser and Holzapfel [28] is to assume that the crack surface can be represented by a linear function in the local coordinate system Z̄ =a0+a1 X̄+a2Ȳ (14) The coefficients a0,a1,a2 in the local coordinate system follow from solving the corresponding least-squares problem, which”
