Materials failure in 3D still poses basic challenges. We study 3D brittle crack dynamics using a phase-field approach, where Gaussian quenched disorder in the fracture energy is incorporated. Disorder is characterized by a correlation…
Cracks in thin layers are influenced by what lies beneath them. From buried craters to crocodile skin, crack patterns are found over an enormous range of length scales. Regardless of absolute size, their substrates can dramatically…
In this work, distortion gradient plasticity is used to gain insight into material deformation ahead of a crack tip. This also constitutes the first fracture mechanics analysis of gradient plasticity theories adopting Nye's tensor as primal…
We report experimental measurements of particle dynamics on slowly sheared granular matter in a three-dimensional (3D) Couette cell. A closely-packed ensemble of transparent spherical beads is confined by an external pressure and filled…
In the present paper, a new parabolic shear deformation beam theory is developed and applied to investigate the bending behavior of functionally graded (FG) sandwich curved beam. The present theory is exploited to satisfy parabolic…
The thermo-mechanical coupling mechanism of graphene fracture under thermal gradients possesses rich applications whereas is hard to study due to its coupled non-equilibrium nature. We employ non-equilibrium molecular dynamics to study the…
In this paper, we'll answer several abstract, formal questions about the nature of crack growth and nucleation. Bringing a field theory point of view to fracture illuminates things in what I hope will be an entertaining way. Formally, what…
We theoretically study the effects of electron-electron interaction in twisted bilayer graphene in applied transverse dc electric field. When the twist angle is not very small, the electronic spectrum of the bilayer consists of four Dirac…
The ubiquitous appearance of regions of localized deformation (shear bands) in different kinds of disordered materials under shear is studied in the context of a mesoscopic model of plasticity. The model may or may not include relaxational…
The propagation of elastic waves in a fractured rock is investigated, both theoretically and numerically. Outside the fractures, the propagation of compressional waves is described in the simple framework of one-dimensional linear…
An electron beam traversing a structured plasmonic field is shown to undergo diffraction with characteristic angular patterns of both elastic and inelastic outgoing electron components. In particular, a plasmonic {\it grating} (e.g., a…
The dynamics of a crack propagating in an elastic inhomogeneous material is investigated. The variations of the average crack velocity with the external loading are measured for a brittle rock and are shown to display two distinct regimes:…
A dynamic crack will travel in a straight path up to a material-dependent critical speed beyond which its path becomes erratic. Predicting this critical speed and discovering the origin of this instability are two outstanding problems in…
A phenomenological model describing the time-frequency dependence of the power spectrum of thin plates vibrating in a wave turbulence regime, is introduced. The model equation contains as basic solutions the Rayleigh-Jeans equipartition of…
Graphene is a material with potential applications in electric, thermal, and mechanical fields, and has seen significant advancements in growth methods that facilitate large-scale production. However, defects during growth and transfer to…
In the Gaia era, understanding the effects of the perturbations of the Galactic disc is of major importance in the context of dynamical modelling. In this theoretical paper we extend previous work in which, making use of the epicyclic…
Thin elastic sheets supported on compliant media form wrinkles under lateral compression. Since the lateral pressure is coupled to the sheet's deformation, varying it periodically in time creates a parametric excitation. We study the…
Ultimately, brittle fracture involves breaking atomic bonds. However, we still lack a clear picture of what happens in the highly deformed region around a moving crack tip. Consequently, we still cannot link nano to atomic-scale phenomena…
The perturbation method for the analysis of thin, manifestly deformed films is given. The application of the method the excitons in the film has shown that those have the effective mass essentially depending on the propagation direction.…
We present a continuum phase-field model of crack propagation. It includes a phase-field that is proportional to the mass density and a displacement field that is governed by linear elastic theory. Generic macroscopic crack growth laws…
