I have an elastic crack propagation analysis using slave-master method with crack length time-dependent criterion. It works fine unless I can’t find the balance energy between internal energy and work external like the following (ABAQUS Theory Manual/Energy Balance 1.5.5)
If we note :
ALLWK...
Does anyone known why the Crack propagation analysis can't be performed using the *VISCO procedures in version 6.6.3 but this can be done with version 6.4 ? It's a only backwardness ? :D

Thanks
In order of studying a crack propagation analysis of viscoelastic material (bituminous binder), I use crack length versus time criterion for my model of CAX4 elements that you can see in the image:
When I calculate the stress intensity factor and opening crack factor by extracting the...
In fact, I have a viscoelastic material in Prony-series presentation by fitting these models to viscoelastic experimental data.
. At the moment, I have to determine the property of this model Prony-series for each temperature and following by a calculation of this file input abaqus *.INP.
But I...
