Add XFEM crack to an already deformed model
I hope this can be done and I want to say thank you in advance for any feedback.
I have already completed a simulation of a plate with a hole and pulling a mandrel through the hole to expand it and create a plastically deformed hole.
Now, I would like to take this plastically deformed hole, add an XFEM crack and vertically pull to simulate a tension test.
Can this be done?
