In this paper, a new method for level set update is proposed, in the context of crack propagation modeling with the extended finite element method (X-FEM) and level sets. Compared with the existing methods, such as the resolution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equations, this new method is much simpler because it does not required complex manipulations of the level sets. This method, called the projection method, uses both a classical discretization of the surface of the crack (segments for 2d cracks and triangles for 3d cracks) and a level set representation of the crack. This discretization is updated with respect to the position of the new crack front. Then the level sets are re-computed using the true distance to the new crack, by an orthogonal projection of each node of the structure onto the new crack surface. Then, numerical illustrations are given on 2d and 3d academic examples. Finally, three illustrations are given on 3d industrial applications. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
