Hi:

I want to simulate the closed pre-crack example in paper[1] . In paper[1], the author use two methods to creat the model. And I have some questions about creating pre-crack model. Here is my question:

1. About method 1 "removing the cohesive feature of all interactions located along the flaw surface". Can i do this using 'i.phys.isCohesive=0' to creat precrack in model. If i can, how  can I identify the particles on either side of the crack.

2.About method 2 "using smooth joint method". I tried using SJM in a uniaxial compression simulation. But there was a problem with the simulation, and particles disappeared when the simulation started. Here is my script:
