Hi everybody
I am a geotech engineer, I use a program Abaqus, I want to know
when I use tow layers of soil, each layer with their properties, when i use the contact between these layers
my question is; How i generat initial stresses without discontinuity between the two layers ?
Thanks
Do singular stress fields exist close to rigid corners?

Crack propagation in brittle materials with anisotropic surface energy is important in applications involving
single crystals, extruded polymers, or geological and organic materials. Furthermore, when this anisotropy
is strong, the phenomenology of crack propagation becomes very rich, with forbidden crack propagation
directions or complex sawtooth crack patterns. This problem interrogates fundamental issues in fracture
mechanics, including the principles behind the selection of crack direction. Here, we propose a variational
