Abstract
Recently, several Meshfree methods have been dveloped. Especially, many researchers are focused on extend finite element method (X-FEM) that enables to evaluate stress intensty factors and solve crack growth problems efficiently in the area of fracture mechanics. This paper describes formulaiton of Hermitian Type 3-node Triangular Element.Then, apply Hermitian Type 3-node Triangular Element to X-FEM. Specifically, we considered to obtain appropriate solutions for two dimension elasic problems.
