.. _U2.05.01: **u2.05.01** Instructions for use of fracture mechanics operators for the classical approach (non-linear elasticity) =============================================================================================================================== **Summary:** This document presents the fracture mechanics operators available in *Code_Aster* as part of the classical approach. The classical approach is limited to non-linear elasticity. Tips for use are given. It is advisable to have read the general methodological guide in fracture mechanics, which lists the different approaches available [:ref:`U2.05.00 `]. .. toctree:: :hidden: self .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 :numbered: G_n_ralit_s Cadre_d_utilisation_des_fonctionnalit_s_de_m_canique_de_la_rupture_dans_Code_Aster_ Mise_en__uvre_d_une__tude_de_m_canique_de_la_rupture Recommandations_d_utilisation Conclusions Documentation_mecanique_rupture Bibliographie_
