Dear Reza,

there is also a deal.II gitHub "tutorial" on phase-field fracture,
which exactly addresses your questions:

Hi

1) You can use UCD or Abaqus mesh format as input.
2) The best choice in mesh refinement is phase field variable. I have used phase field as control variable. Loop over cells and check the phase field variable in the cells. If phase field variable was greater than a limit then refine the cell. In addition you can use energy.

Best,
H.

    Dear all,

    currently I do my master thesis and firstly I have to do adaptive
    mesh refinement for a brittle fracture in 2D using a phase-field
    approach but with my own geometry. I would like to ask you how can
    I input my geometry in dealii-8.4.1, which version I use and how
    can I command that only the area has to be refined, which is
    cracked. I have seen the second one in step-12 but I could not
    find out how can I change the geometry and the crack direction on
    it. I took a look at the FAQ, the tutorials and the videos too but
    unfortunately could not find the answer which I need. Thank you in
    advance for your answer.

    Best regards

    Reza
