This is a static/quasi-static loading problem employing loading at 1.5 mm/min for a total deformation of 50% of structure vertical length. The material is Ti-6Al-4V.

I have seen fracture simulations in LS-DYNA for high loading rates, but not sure whether it's use if viable at my loading rate.

I am comparing the energy absorbed (area under the stress-strain curve) between the experiment and simulated data. So I am basically trying to replicate the attached experimental curve(s).
