Akantu has reached a new milestone with the official release of Akantu 4.0 !
The repository has officially migrated to GitLab . The development team is proud to introduce the new python interface which greatly improve Akantu's accessibility. In addition, tutorials based on the python interface are available to help newcomers to the Akantu community to get started! Two major features are introduced in this version: (1) the phase-field model , a mesh-independent damage model for brittle fracture that can handle complex crack networks, (2) the contact mechanics model handling the contact between bodies.
