Oscillatory and tip-splitting instabilities in 2D dynamic fracture: The roles of intrinsic material length and time scales
Aditya Vasudevan, Yuri Lubomirsky, Chih-Hung Chen +2
Recent theoretical and computational progress has led to unprecedented understanding of symmetry-breaking instabilities in 2D dynamic fracture. At the heart of this progress reside…
Universality and stability phase-diagram of two-dimensional brittle fracture
Yuri Lubomirsky, Chih-Hung Chen, Alain Karma +1
The two-dimensional oscillatory crack instability, experimentally observed in a class of brittle materials under strongly dynamic conditions, has been recently reproduced by a nonl…
Instability in dynamic fracture and the failure of the classical theory of cracks
Chih-Hung Chen, Eran Bouchbinder, Alain Karma
Cracks, the major vehicle for material failure, tend to accelerate to high velocities in brittle materials. In three-dimensions, cracks generically undergo a micro-branching instab…
