Figure 2From: Coupling local and non-local damage evolutions with the Thick Level Set modelLocal ( Ω−) and localization ( Ω+) domains as well as cracks faces ( Γ c ). Inside Ω+, we have ║∇ϕ║=1. It can be noted that ∇ ϕ (and thus ∇ d) is discontinuous along the dashed line which is the so-called skeleton of the distance function.Back to article page
