Could someone explain to me the difference between a fracture compliance and reservoir compliance, please?

Hi: All I know is that if you go into more depth from Hooke's law into plane stress or plane strain conditions, the inverse of the material stiffness matrix is the material compliance! However,...

Mousumi Ghosh

Hello Martin:

Could you please explain this to me in detail, please?

Thank you for your help.

Abaqus/CAE comes with this new and highly innovative thing called "manual". That's were experts on the software explain how to actually use it.

I gave you the keyword you might look for, the manual will do the rest for me.
