Reply To: Fracture Propagation Study by FSI

[Atif Ismail]

 

Thank you for your reply Mr. Khemka. 
I have read the shared link. 
I am comfortable in using SMART Crack Growth but I am unable to use that in two way-FSI (Structural and fluent). 
Kindly confirm if SMART Crack growth works in two way-FSI or not? If it is possible if you may share any relevant reference for that. 
How I select the fracture top face and bottom face as a coupling region?
As if I select the area A as a coupling region (Figure 1), the sif is highest at the point B and C where as SIF should be highest at the fracture front (yellow circled) (Figure 2). 

If you may comment on the posted issue. 
Regards,
