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…
Athermal Fracture of Elastic Networks: How Rigidity Challenges the Unavoidable Size-Induced Brittleness
Simone Dussi, Justin Tauber, Jasper van der Gucht
By performing extensive simulations with unprecedentedly large system sizes, we unveil how rigidity influences the fracture of disordered materials. We observe the largest damage i…
Stress management in composite biopolymer networks
Federica Burla, Justin Tauber, Simone Dussi +2
Living tissues show an extraordinary adaptiveness to strain, which is crucial for their proper biological functioning. The physical origin of this mechanical behaviour has been wid…
