Hi everyone
i'm working on modeling crack in plates and i'm a little confused about correct boundary condition of a single edge crack in a plate under tension! could you please tell me which corner should fixed and which one should defined as a roller???
i also attached a figure.
i tried 2 kind of BC for my problem:
1- node 1: roller (Ux=0) and node 3: fixed (Ux=Uy=0)
2- i only fixed node 2 (Ux=Uy=0)
and the stress intensity factor calculated by these BCs almost the same!!!

The Applied Mechanics Division (AMD) of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) strives to foster the intelligent use of mechanics by engineers and to develop this science to serve the needs of the engineering community. The AMD was founded in 1927 with Stephen Timoshenko as its first chair.
It might be fun for us to work together to collect phenomena of large elastic deformation. These phenomena will enliven teaching and motivate research. As inspiration, here are two albums of fluid motion
Graduate student research positions are available in Professor
Martini’s Fundamental Tribology group in Mechanical Engineering at the
University of California Merced. UC Merced is the 10th campus of the University
of California system, opened in 2005, with a rapidy growing research program. Professor Martini’s
group focuses on computational modeling of friction, wear and lubrication of
sliding surfaces, with particular emphasis on nanoscale interfacial phenomena.
Prospective applicants should contact Professor Martini directly.
