NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF FATIGUE CRACK GROWTH
The purpose of this study was to explore the posibilities and challenges with simulating fatigue crack growth (FCG) by the extended finite element method (XFEM). Another aim was to develope a procedure for XFEM FCG simulations in Abaqus by means of scripting. Finally was the procedure used to simula...
