Abstract: This work presents a new adaptive approach for the numerical simulation of a phase-field model for fractures in nearly incompressible solids. In order to cope with locking effects, we use a recently proposed mixed form where we have a hydro-static pressure as additional unknown besides the displacement field and the phase-field variable. To fulfill the fracture irreversibility constraint, we consider a formulation as a variational inequality in the phase-field variable. For adaptive mesh refinement, we use a recently developed residual-type a posteriori error estimator for the phase-field variational inequality which is efficient and reliable, and robust with respect to the phase-field regularization parameter. The proposed model and the adaptive error-based refinement strategy are demonstrated by means of numerical tests derived from the L-shaped panel test, originally developed for concrete. Here, the Poisson's ratio is changed from the standard setting towards the incompressible limit $uo0.5$.
