Model A crack
(OP)
hi,
I am a new ABAQUS user.
I am trying to model a crack in 2D square plate.
Could anyone please tell me the steps that I should take to model a crack in the top of a 2D square plate.
Thanks,

ABAQUS/CAE User's Manual -> 20.1 Modeling fracture mechanics
Or you can search the HTML documentation for "crack" , "fracture mechanics".
