I would like to couple the temperature field and the crack propagation at the surface of a pipe.

1)For the crack propagation, I use Step>Static/General. This cannot be used to study the temperature field and the impact of the temperature on the dynamic crack.

2)For the displacement of a material submitted to loading and temperature,Step>CoupledTempDisplacement is working ok
(coupling displacement/temperature)but it is not possible to study a crack with this feature

3))Dynamic/Implicit is not working for a crack.
What would be the way in order to be able to do the coupling temperature and crack propagation ?

Thank you for your help.
