ANSYS APDL query

Submitted by sbmarwadi on

hi

I want to determine the number of cycles required to propagate a crack upto certain dimentions or vice-versa?

Does ansys APDL has that capability to do fatigue analysis of a growing crack.

my problem is analysis of elliptical corner crack present at shell nozle juntion. 

if yes,please tell what is to be done in ansys  13.0 APDL for this?

thanks and regards

Submitted by sbmarwadi on

hello,

i am trying to calculate a j integral values for a 3d crack in ansys.

i tried with a following txt code and as a input file.

the following code actully works for 2d crack for defined paths.what changes should be made to this for getting j-integral values in 3d crack?
