The cooperative effect of load and disorder in thermally activated rupture of a two-dimensional random fuse network
Alessio Guarino, Loïc Vanel, Riccardo Scorretti +1
A random fuse network, or equivalently a two-dimensional spring network with quenched disorder, is subjected to a constant load and thermal noise, and studied by means of numerical…
Thermal activation of rupture and slow crack growth in a model of homogenous brittle materials
S. Santucci, L. Vanel, A. Guarino +2
Slow crack growth in a model of homogenous brittle elastic material is described as a thermal activation process where stress fluctuations allow to overcome a breaking threshold th…
Failure time in the fiber-bundle model with thermal noise and disorder
Antonio Politi, Segio Ciliberto, Riccardo Scorretti
The average time for the onset of macroscopic fractures is analytically and numerically investigated in the fiber-bundle model with quenched disorder and thermal noise under a cons…
Failure time and critical behaviour of fracture precursors in heterogeneous materials
A. Guarino, S. Ciliberto, A. Garcimartin +2
The acoustic emission of fracture precursors, and the failure time of samples of heterogeneous materials (wood, fiberglass) are studied as a function of the load features and geome…
The effect of disorder on the fracture nucleation process
S. Ciliberto, A. Guarino, R. Scorretti
The statistical properties of failure are studied in a fiber bundle model with thermal noise. We show that the macroscopic failure is produced by a thermal activation of microcrack…
Material failure time and the fiber bundle model with thermal noise
A. Guarino, R. Scorretti, S. Ciliberto
The statistical properties of failure are studied in a fiber bundle model with thermal noise. We find that in agreement with recent experiments the macroscopic failure is produced…
The critical exponents of fracture precursors
A. Guarino, R. Scorretti, S. Ciliberto +1
The acoustic emission of fracture precursors is measured in heterogeneous materials. The statistical behaviour of these precursors is studied as a function of the load features and…
