Crack Front Definition
Used to describe geometric characteristics of the crack front for fracture integral calculations
Description
This object is used in the computation of fracture domain integrals. It is used to store information about the location of the crack front, and provides functions used by other objects involved in fracture integral calculation. It is not necessary to define this block in the input file, as it can be set up using the DomainIntegralAction.
