OPERAND DESCRIPTION DEFAULT
Object Object number None
nelm Number of elements required to meet the fracture criteria before triggering the fracture program. None

DEFINITION

FRCNEL determines the total number of elements that must meet the fracture criteria, before FEM is stopped and the fracture program is started. A good value to use is 4, because in releases after DEFORM®;-2D version 5.0 this may help in the element splitting program. However a value of 1 can be used.
