The material point method (MPM) is efficiently applied for the simulation of structures undergoing large deformations where fracture and crack initiation are expected. The eigenfracture approach is introduced in the paper at hand for the implicit MPM to model crack development and propagation in static and dynamic fracture of brittle elastic materials. Eigenfracture is an energetic fracture formulation applied in the postprocessing step of the implicit MPM, making its implementation relatively straightforward. Furthermore, the driving energy used to check crack propagation is evaluated using the representative crack elements (RCE), by which the crack is modeled as a discrete phenomenon. The RCE approach shows more realistic results compared to other split models. Additionally, the fracture description of reinforced materials within the MPM is also presented in this article by coupling truss finite elements to the MPM, considering the bond stress-slip constitutive model. Two- and three-dimensional problems in static and dynamic applications are presented to assess the efficacy of the approach.
