Hello to everyone.

The question is as:

I want to introduce the critical fracture energies (Gic,Giic) in a mixed mode fracture analysis in Abaqus using the XFEM  or the cohesive simulation method.My material can be considered as linear, the problem quasi static and the material properties E,v and yield strength known.

Location: Créteil, Paris Region.
