Hello,
I'm simulating a complex geometry where a compressive load is applied at the bottom of the geometry. Due to the geometric shape and angular placement of XFEM crack, there appears bending load. When I look at the simulation result of J integral from ABAQUS, it looks reasonable values.
But ABAQUS gives single value of J integral in stead of J integral from different modes. I have to obtain the values of KI and K II from the J integral. Is there any way to calculate the above two stress intensity factors from J integral?
I tried with built-in ABAQUS feature to get stress intensity factors. But the calculated values provided by ABAQUS by default are very very high than expected.
Any response is highly appreciated.
Thank you
