Under an applied external load the global load-sharing fiber bundle model, with individual fiber strength thresholds sampled randomly from a probability distribution, will relax to an equilibrium state, or to complete bundle breakdown. The…
We investigate how the dimensionality of the embedding space affects the microscopic crackling dynamics and the macroscopic response of heterogeneous materials. Using a fiber bundle model with localized load sharing computer simulations are…
The fiber bundle model is essentially an array of elements that break when sufficient load is applied on them. With a local loading mechanism, this can serve as a model for a one-dimensional interface separating the broken and unbroken…
We study the effect of heterogeneous load sharing in the fiber bundle models of fracture. The system is divided into two groups of fibers (fraction $p$ and $1-p$) in which one group follow the completely local load sharing mechanism and the…
One of the most important scaling laws of time dependent fracture is Basquin's law of fatigue, namely, that the lifetime of the system increases as a power law with decreasing external load amplitude, $t_f\sim \sigma_0^{-\alpha}$, where the…
We investigate the failure process of fiber bundles with structural disorder represented by the random misalignment of fibers. The strength of fibers is assumed to be constant so that misalignment is the only source of disorder, which…
We analyze the failure process of a two-component system with widely different fracture strength in the framework of a fiber bundle model with localized load sharing. A fraction 0\leq \alpha \leq 1 of the bundle is strong and it is…
We study the effect of strong heterogeneities on the fracture of disordered materials using a fiber bundle model. The bundle is composed of two subsets of fibers, i.e. a fraction 0<\alpha<1 of fibers is unbreakable, while the remaining…
We propose a stochastic model of a fragmentation process, developed by taking into account fragment lifetime as a function of their size based on the Gibrat process. If lifetime is determined by a power function of fragment size, numerical…
Bundles of many fibers, with statistically distributed thresholds for breakdown of individual fibers and where the load carried by a bursting fiber is equally distributed among the surviving members, are considered. During the breakdown…
We propose a generic model to describe the mechanical response and failure of systems which undergo a series of stick-slip events when subjected to an external load. We model the system as a bundle of fibers, where single fibers can…
We have studied precursors of the global failure in some self-organised critical models of sand-pile (in BTW and Manna models) and in the random fiber bundle model (RFB). In both BTW and Manna model, as one adds a small but fixed number of…
The average time for the onset of macroscopic fractures is analytically and numerically investigated in the fiber-bundle model with quenched disorder and thermal noise under a constant load. We find an implicit exact expression for the…
We discuss the cooperative failure dynamics in the Fiber Bundle Model where the individual elements or fibers are Hookean springs, having identical spring constant but different breaking strengths. When the bundle is stressed or strained,…
The dynamics of a fibre-bundle type model with equal load sharing rule is numerically studied. The system, formed by N elements, is driven by a slow increase of the load upon it which is removed in a novel way through internal transfers to…
As a model of composite materials, we choose a bundle of fibers with stochastically distributed breaking thresholds for the individual fibers. the fibers are assumed to share the load equally and to obey Hookean elasticity right up to the…
We introduce a continuous damage fiber bundle model that gives rise to macroscopic plasticity and compare its behavior with that of dry fiber bundles. Several interesting constitutive behaviors are found in this model depending on the value…
As a model of composite materials, a bundle of many fibers with stochastically distributed breaking thresholds for the individual fibers is considered. The bundle is loaded until complete failure to capture the failure scenario of composite…
A fiber bundle model in $(1+1)$-dimensions for the breaking of fibrous composite matrix is introduced. The model consists of $N$ parallel fibers fixed in two plates. When one of the plates is pulled in the direction parallel to the fibers,…
One of the major factors governing the mode of failure in disordered solids is the effective range $R$, over which the stress field is modified following a local rupture event. In random fiber bundle model, considered as a prototype of…
