Fatigue crack growth cyclic load

Fatigue crack growth cyclic load

Fatigue crack growth cyclic load

(OP)
Hello all,

what I want to do is to simulate the fatigue crack growth in a standard dog bone shaped specimen with an initial crack in it. I have experimental results that I would like to validate numerically. Is there any way to do it in abaqus?

I have seen the monotonic crack growth tutorial, but is there any way to do it for a constant amplitude cyclic load to estimate numerically the fatigue life?

Thank you in advance!
