Hi, I am thinking if it is possible to simulate crack growth under High Cycle Fatigue in Abaqus? All the tutorials I have come across on XFEM shows crack growth only with static load. Wondering if there is a way to simulate alternating stresses superimposed on static stresses.

Thank you
Geoff

Abaqus can only do low-cycle fatigue with XFEM.
