Is there an official CZM (Cohesive Zone Model) example from Altair?

Hi guys!

I’m looking for an official Altair example (tutorial, demo model, or documentation) that demonstrates the use of Cohesive Zone Modeling (CZM) — ideally in HyperMesh / OptiStruct.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you, Rajashri. I will study the example and run the code.
If you are familiar with CZM, could you please also take a look at this thread and the images I generated? I would appreciate your help in understanding the results. This is the link:
