I’ve been trying to simulate a tensile test of CFRP in Abaqus, and I’ve set the displacement in Load case(step1) to 5mm with a concentrated load of 10000N, but the specimen doesn’t break and the displacement keeps increasing ( 15-20-25mm etc). So, could someone maybe assist me in resolving this problem so that I can see the material damage after a 5mm displacement? Thanks.

Greetings,
If by CFRP you meant Carbon fiber-reinforced polymers, to see the damage and the breaking, you need to define the Hashin Damage in the Property module. if you don’t know how to use it, well, google it, or you can refer to the link below:

there, you will learn the damage in composites with different examples.
Best luck.
