Good morning

 

I'm working in Abaqus on modelling  crack propagation. Regards this i have two questions.

1)I would like to ask if it is possible for Abaqus to create automatic propagation in 2D or 3D. What should I do to receive the effect. I've defined the crack and in the history Output i've defined the crack initiation criterion. There are no warnings, no errors, and in visualization module the effects are miserable. 

2)When I'm trying to plot Crack prop. direction I'm receiving only points in vertical for time=1s, and I would like to receive crack propagation for different state of times, different moments.

P.s. Sorry for my english, I hope everything is clear enough to understand this post. I hope someone can help me.

Regards
