The role of temperature in the rigidity-controlled fracture of elastic networks
Justin Tauber, Aimée R. Kok, Jasper van der Gucht +1
We study the influence of thermal fluctuations on the fracture of elastic networks, via simulations of the uniaxial extension of central-force spring networks with varying rigidity…

Microscopic insights into the failure of elastic double networks
Justin Tauber, Simone Dussi, Jasper van der Gucht
The toughness of a polymer material can increase significantly if two networks are combined into one material. This toughening effect is a consequence of a transition from a brittl…
