hi, I am trying to simulate the debonding of a double cantilever beam specimen in abaqus..I have modelled the adhesive and used tie constrain to simulate bonding..i kept increasing the load as well..but I am unable to figure out how to initiate the debonding..i have left the first 20 nodes of the model without the tie constrain to initiate the crack..please help me on this..thank you
