        Parameters
        ----------
        name
            A String specifying the repository key. 
        createStepName
            A String specifying the name of the step in which the XFEMCrackGrowth object is created. 
        crackName
            A String specifying the XFEMCrack object associated with this interaction. 
        allowGrowth
            A Boolean specifying whether the crack is allowed to grow (propagate) during this 
            analysis step. The default value is ON.
