Error assessment and mesh adaptivity for regularized continuous failure models

This paper deals with the adaptive finite element analysis of structural failure. A gradient-enhanced damage model has been chosen to simulate material degradation. Since this model is regularized in the post-peak regime, the finite element solution does not suffer from pathological mesh dependence...
