Hi,
I have to study a crack growth to obtain the residual strength curve. My model has a cohesive elements zone with a stress-displacement law. I am able to run a static analysis and obtain the stresses at the crack tip. However I do not know if there is a way to add load automatically until the crack grows. If anyone knows how to do this will help me a lot.Thanks
