Damage and fracture are the main causes of structural failure, which have a significant impact on engineering safety. Crack propagation problem is also a fundamental scientific challenge that needs to be solved urgently. In this paper, the relevant theoretical basis for simulating damage and fracture, such as a fracture mechanics model, damage evolution model and numerical calculation methods, such as the finite element method, boundary element method and peridynamics theory, are introduced in the form of literature review. This paper also reviews the commonly used CAE software for structural damage and fracture analysis, including general-purpose finite element programs such as the damage and fracture analysis module that comes with ABAQUS, as well as specialized fracture analysis software, damage tolerance tools, fatigue life analysis tools, etc. The development status of some autonomous CAE software is also discussed. Finally, this paper analyzes some challenges faced by CAE software for damage and fracture simulation, and looks forward to the future development direction of domestic CAE software.
