Crack propagation model
Crack propagation model
(OP)
Ive created a 3d cube model in abaqus and incorporated a 3d shell extrusion that is supposed to represent a crack in the cube model. I have assigned loads to the faces of the shelled 'crack' part to simulate tension, as i think that will open the crack. This was done by creating 2 surfaces, one for the top of the shell surface and one for the bottom surface. The said loads were then applied to the two surfaces. When i run the model the following error message comes up and the job is aborting. Does anyone have an idea where im going wrong?
Error in job Job-1: SURFACE DEFINITION ASSEMBLY_SURF-1 NOT FOUND.
Error in job Job-1: SURFACE DEFINITION ASSEMBLY_SURF-2 NOT FOUND.
Error in job Job-1: THE SURFACE ASSEMBLY_SURF-1 HAS NOT BEEN LOCATED
Error in job Job-1: THE SURFACE ASSEMBLY_SURF-2 HAS NOT BEEN LOCATED
Thanks in advance

would you by any chance know how to assign boundary conditions on my said cube if i wanted to simulate the 3 different modes of fracturing?
