Experimental Realization of the Fuse Model of Crack Formation
D. R. Otomar, I. L. Menezes-Sobrinho, M. S Couto
In this work, we present an experimental investigation of the fuse model. Our main goal was to study the influence of the disorder on the fracture process. The experimental apparat…

Anisotropy in Rupture Lines of Paper Sheets
I. L. Menezes-Sobrinho, M. S. Couto, I. R. B. Ribeiro
We have experimentally investigated the fracture process in paper samples submitted to a uniaxial force. Five types of paper sheets (newsprint, towel, sulfite, silk and couche pape…

Roughness exponent in the fracture of fibrous materials
I. L. Menezes-Sobrinho
In this paper, a computational model in (2+1)-dimensions which simulates the rupture process of a fibrous material submitted to a constant force , is analyzed. The roughness exp…
