Single Edge Cracked Plate Subjected to Uniform Normal Displacement

Test Description

A single edge cracked plate with plane strain elements is subjected to a uniform normal displacement of 0.01mm. Symmetry has been taken into account and only one quarter of the plate is modeled. UY=0 along uncracked portion, UX =0 at location X=10 and Y=0.
