Explicit transient dynamics + Stress-wave propagation + Dynamic fracture/damage

[magabry]

Which Simulation software can simulate and answer the following question (“How will the fracture propagate when we apply a shock wave (rising to 100,000 psi within 10 microseconds, dropping to 50,000 psi in 10 microseconds, rising again to 100,000 psi in 10 microseconds, then dropping to 0 psi over 40 microseconds) in a 6-inch wellbore within a 500 ft (X) × 500 ft (Y) x 100 ft (h) reservoir under a static vertical stress of 11,000 psi, minimum horizontal stress of 7,000 psi, and maximum horizontal stress of 8,000 psi in a porous rock?”)

LS-Dyna would be a good fit for the problem described.

There is a channel here dedicated to that solver: https://innovationspace.ansys.com/forum/forums/forum/discuss-simulation/ls-dyna/
