The eXtended isogeometric analysis (X-IGA) combined with Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is used for crack identification in twodimensional linear elastic problems based on inverse problem. The application of fracture mechanics test under mode II loading is performed. The X-IGA possesses the advantages of the combination between eXtended Finite Element Method (X-FEM) and the Isogeometric Analysis (IGA). The objective function minimizes the gap between the calculated and measured displacements. Convergence studies at various positions of crack on the plate are calculated and the results shows that the proposed technique can detect damage with minimum accuracy 95% for the position and maximum accuracy 98%.
