Hey All.
I' m M.S of petroleum engineering.
i want to simulate the cracks interactions(a propagating crack and a pre-existing crack).
But the XFEM in ABAQUS has some limitations that doesn't let me do such simulation!
I'd like to know if anyone knows any kind of subroutines(i.e cracks interactions or crack propagation related subroutines) for this kind of simulation.
Besides,that would be my pleasure to know any suggestion,idea or guidlines for my problem.
Regards.
