How can i do the circular meshing around crack tip in 3-D using ANSYS APDL commands?

12 December 2016 0 5K Report

Hello, i just started the 3D crack problem. i have made the geometry but the problem is that i dont know how to create the circular meshing around the crack tip. is there any particular APDL command or programme?
