Abstract

This codebase is developed to address optimal control problems in phase-field fracture, aiming to achieve a desired fracture pattern in brittle materials through the application of external forces. Built alongside our recent work (Khimin et al., 2022), this framework provides an efficient and precise approach for simulating space–time phase-field optimal control problems. In this setup, the fracture is controlled via Neumann boundary conditions, with the cost functional designed to minimize the difference between the actual and desired fracture states. The implementation relies on the open-source libraries DOpElib (Goll et al., 2017) and deal.II (Arndt et al.
