Sameh Yehia

i recommended ANSYS instead of SAP.

Suryawan Murtiadi

I agree with Dr. Sameh Yelia.

I don't think SAP can do properly.

ANSYS or ABAQUS will do better.

Amine Osmani

hello ,

I advise you to model your work with software that porocede by the FEM like abaqus, Ansys, Castem... etc, they were created for advanced search.

Good luck.

Albert Surla

It will be easier to model using ABAQUS.

Good luck on your research.

Hao Jin

Agree with Alert Surla.

Using XFEM in Abaqus. It's very easy to get what you want.
