HI

I am working on mixed mode fracture mechanics project . I was wondering what would be the appropiate mesh size to calculate the SIF of Mode 2 accurately

 i am using ansys to calculate the SIF's .. I need the size of the mesh in terms of the radius of the first ring  of quadratic elements .

Hi 

 I am working on a project where fracture parameters are to be studied at the interface of a bimaterial body ..I would like your help for the following 

1 .If there is any Material or papers contentrating on the above plz let me know

2 . Which FEA Program gives or works best on this kind of prioblems
