This paper presents all reviews of the new methods embedded predefined interfaces infinite element analysis of the structure A latest methods design for embed predefined interfaces infinite elements analysis of structure within the arbitrary finite elements meshing is proposed and demonstrated for embed structures analysis. Within a given finite element analysis, the initiation of fracture or slippage may occur simultaneously along a predefined interface and in the bulk of the element of structure analysis. In order to determine which surface is very critical, we feature a criterion which aids in determining the correct surface upon which all further slippage due to fracture will occurrence of the analysis. The algorithm for generating these predefined surfaces is detailed and subsequently applied to, but by no means limited to, masonry problems to demonstrate its efficacy. This interface method is cast in the framework of an enhanced strain finite element which is capable of capturing softening along an embedded strong discontinuity of the finite element analysis.
