Cracks in a 3D plate

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I'd like to create a model of two plates laminated to one another, where one of the plates has many cracks in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the plates. For instance if you laminate a plate of glass to a plate of steel, then bent the laminate cracking the glass.

Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It seems to me that you need a damage model, similar to the one discussed by my colleague Ed Gonzalez in a blog post yesterday:
