Abaqus Tutorial 15a:
Ply Failure with XFEM
In this tutorial, you will modify a structural model of a stiffened panel to define the material properties including the ply failure parameters and create X-FEM domains.
When you complete this tutorial, you will be able to:
- Define the material properties of a composite ply
- Define a ply failure criterion
- Create an enriched X-FEM domain
