I am working with crack propagation along with delamination using ABAQUS. Wether crack will start from a delaminated portion (cohesive crack) by XFEM?

I am modelling a SENB Beam with an interface. The interface is modelled with cohesive elements to permit delamination. The carck in the continumm is taken care by the XFEM. My doubt is the crack starts from the continumm and reaches the interface where delamination takes place, but the cohesive crack is not carried forward by the XFEM why??
