Discrete Fracture Model with Anisotropic Load Sharing
R. C. Hidalgo, S. Zapperi, H. J. Herrmann
A two-dimensional fracture model where the interaction among elements is modeled by an anisotropic stress-transfer function is presented. The influence of anisotropy on the macrosc…

Universality class of fiber bundles with strong heterogeneities
R. C. Hidalgo, K. Kovacs, I. Pagonabarraga +1
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…
