A new method for numerical simulation of failure behavior, namely, FEM-β, is proposed. For a continuum model of a deformable body, FEM-β solves a boundary value problem by applying particle discretization to a displacement field; the domain is decomposed into a set of Voronoi blocks and the non-overlapping characteristic functions for the Voronoi blocks are used to discretize the displacement function...
