ABAQUS crack propagation

ABAQUS crack propagation

(OP)
I am needing to see how a crack propagates through a metal specimen in ABAQUS. Does anyone have any clue as to how to even start this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

RE: ABAQUS crack propagation

Search the help for VCCT.  I hope this helps.

It turned up no results. What does the acronym stand for, maybe I can search for that. Thanks.

RE: ABAQUS crack propagation

I am in version 6.8 and there are over 100 hits.  If you are using a very old version (3years?) it may not be implemented yet.  VCCT (virtual crack closure technique)
