How can we use XFEM method combined with concrete damage plasticity constitutive model for simulating the concrete in Abaqus?

15 May 2025 1 3K Report

I am working on combining the Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) with the Concrete Damaged Plasticity (CDP) model for simulating concrete behavior. XFEM helps provide a more realistic representation of crack growth. If anyone has experience using this combined approach, your insights would be greatly appreciated.
