I've modelled a DCB specimen and applied Boundary conditions and load... I followed the same procedures given in abaqus documentation... As expected the crack initiates and propagates along the interface... I can get the Resultant force vs displacement plot from the analysis.. But i dont know how to plot the fracture toughness vs crack length plot in ABAQUS..
Please help me... Your suggestion would really help me a lot..

A simple 3D D3Q27 lattice Boltzmann example for simulate the plastic creep simulation on the friction surface
Hi
I used coupled temperature displacement analysis in Abaqus for simulation hot forming sheet.
obtain negative temperature in coupled temperature displacement analysis in Abaqus.
When I use expansion in analysis below error message is displayed
The Abaqus time increment has become negative?? = -3.60330E-07
I'm trying to simulate with ABAQUS a explosion of TNT and the effect of that on a metal panel. The metal panel is 200mm away from explosive. It is about 100g TNT. I now about the subroutine VDLOAD. Which options I could use else in ABAQUS? Is it posible to define a explosion lake this with *EOS? If yes, which element type I should use for explosive set? Should I define a element set for air, if I use *EOS?
Hi
I used coupled temperature displacement analysis in Abaqus for simulation hot forming sheet but obtain negative temperature in coupled temperature displacement analysis in Abaqus.
I think maybe my contact or mesh is not correct.
my step type: Dynamic, Temp-disp, Explicit
mesh type: S4RT
contact type: surface to surface(Explicit) Penalty method contact with termal conductance
Please help me to solve this problem.
