Abstract
The files in this collection accompany the paper 'How to set up a cohesive zone model for an LEFM dominated problem: a detailed analysis for first time users', submitted to Applied Mechanics Reviews. The files comprise input files that allow reproduction of the example analyses shown in that paper. The purpose of the paper is to show how to determine appropriate values of various numerical parameters required when setting up a cohesive zone model analysis of an LEFM dominated crack propagation problem. These parameters can be determined by running a series of convergence studies. The input files for those convergence studies as well as the final prediction are included in this collection.
The example analyses for the paper were run using Abaqus/Standard 6.14, and the included files will work for that software version.
