Abaqus: Crack length as an output or number of deleted elements

Abaqus: Crack length as an output or number of deleted elements

(OP)
Good morning,
In a part of my project i need to do some simulations for arterial layers separation. I used cohesive elements and it works well so far... I have a problem that and in order to characterize teh crack length that i need to estimate the fracture energy, i have to go through abaqus and calculate it... Could't find any way to have it as an output... At least it would be helpful to know how many elements were deleted so using the mesh size i can directly evaluate it... Thank you for your help (PS: I am a beginer using abaqus )
