These properties make the two methods very attractive. However, their implementation in a standard finite element code is nontrivial because it requires heavy and extensive modifications to the code architecture. In this article, we present an element-based formulation of ES-FEM and FS-FEM methods allowing to implement the two methods in a standard finite element code with no modifications to its architecture. Moreover, the element-based formulation permits to easily manage any type of element, especially in 3D models where, to the best of the authors' knowledge, only tetrahedral elements are used in FS-FEM applications found in the literature. Shape functions for non-simplex 3D elements are proposed in order to apply FS-FEM to any standard finite element. %G English %2 https://ifp.hal.science/hal-03956203/document %2 https://ifp.hal.science/hal-03956203/file/An%20element%E2%80%90based%20formulation%20for%20ES%E2%80%90FEM%20and%20FS%E2%80%90FEM%20models%20for%20implementation.pdf %L hal-03956203 %U https://ifp.hal.science/hal-03956203 %~ IFP
