    2D Static Edge Crack - Matthew Pais

    Uploaded by

    Nguyen Ba Dung
    This document provides a tutorial for modeling a 2D static edge crack in ABAQUS using the extended finite element method (XFEM). It describes how to create an uncracked domain, define the material properties, mesh the model, generate the cracked domain by specifying the crack location as a line, apply boundary conditions and loads, and solve the model. Two mesh sizes are provided - one where the crack aligns with element edges and one where it does not.
