In terms of nonlinear material fracture mechanics, the real (discrete)-structure material fracture model has been developed. The model rests on the demonstration of the fact that crack resistance $K_{1c}=2\sigma \sqrt l$ and fracture…
The common approach to crack dynamics, linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM), assumes infinitesimal strains and predicts a $r^{-1/2}$ strain divergence at a crack tip. We extend this framework by deriving a weakly nonlinear fracture…
Various fields such as mechanical engineering, materials science, etc., have seen a widespread use of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) at the continuum scale. LEFM is also routinely applied to the atomic scale. However, its…
Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) provides a consistent framework to evaluate quantitatively the energy flux released to the tip of a growing crack. Still, the way in which the crack selects its velocity in response to this energy…
The failure of materials and interfaces is mediated by cracks, nearly singular dissipative structures that propagate at velocities approaching the speed of sound. Crack initiation and subsequent propagation -- the dynamic process of…
The conventional model governing the spread of fractures in elastic material is formulated by coupling linear elasticity with deformation systems. The classical linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) model is derived based on the…
Disorder and long-range interactions are two of the key components that make material failure an interesting playfield for the application of statistical mechanics. The cornerstone in this respect has been lattice models of the fracture in…
A new quantum action-based theory, Dynamic Quantized Fracture Mechanics (DQFM), is presented that modifies continuum-based dynamic fracture mechanics. The crack propagation is assumed as quantized in both space and time. The static limit…
This study presents the framework to perform a stability analysis of nonlocal solids whose response is formulated according to the fractional-order continuum theory. In this formulation, space fractional-order operators are used to capture…
This work proposes an investigation on the fracturing behavior of polymer nanocomposites. Towards this end, the study leverages on the analysis of a large bulk of fracture tests from the literature with the goal of critically investigating…
Soft polymers are ubiquitous materials in nature and as engineering materials with properties varying from rate-independent to rate-dependent. Current fracture toughness measures are non-unique for rate-dependent soft materials for varying…
Using a generalization of vector calculus for space with non-integer dimension, we consider elastic properties of fractal materials. Fractal materials are described by continuum models with non-integer dimensional space. A generalization of…
Elastomeric materials display a complicated set of stretchability and fracture properties that strongly depend on the flaw size, which has long been of interest to engineers and materials scientists. Here, we combine experiments and…
Fracture of materials with rate-dependent mechanical behaviour, e.g. polymers, is a highly complex process. For an adequate modelling, the coupling between rate-dependent stiffness, dissipative mechanisms present in the bulk material and…
Fracture toughness $K_{IC}$ plays an important role in materials design. Along with numerous experimental methods to measure fracture toughness of materials, its understanding and theoretical prediction is very important. However,…
Fractured metal fragments with rough and irregular surfaces are often found at crime scenes. Current forensic practice visually inspects the complex jagged trajectory of fractured surfaces to recognize a ``match'' using comparative…
Accurately predicting when and how materials fail is critical to designing safe, reliable structures, mechanical systems, and engineered components that operate under stress. Yet, fracture behavior remains difficult to model across the…
A mechanical model is introduced for predicting the initiation and evolution of complex fracture patterns without the need for a damage variable or law. The model, a continuum variant of Newton's second law, uses integral rather than…
A high-fidelity neural network-based force field, NN-F$^{3}$, is developed to cover the strain states up to material failure and the non-equilibrium, intermediate nature of fracture. Simulations of fracture in 2D crystals using NN-F$^{3}$…
Important physical observations in rupture dynamics such as static fault friction, short-slip, self-healing, and supershear phenomenon in cracks are studied. A continuum model of rupture dynamics is developed using the field dislocation…
