Thermally activated intermittent dynamics of creeping crack fronts along disordered interfaces
Tom Vincent-Dospital, Alain Cochard, Stéphane Santucci +2
We present a subcritical fracture growth model, coupled with the elastic redistribution of the acting mechanical stress along rugous rupture fronts. We show the ability of this mod…
Intermittent stick-slip dynamics during the peeling of an adhesive tape from a roller
Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Marie-Julie Dalbe, Claudia Guerra +4
We study experimentally the fracture dynamics during the peeling at a constant velocity of a roller adhesive tape mounted on a freely rotating pulley. Thanks to a high speed camera…
Slow crack growth in polycarbonate films
Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Stéphane Santucci, Loic Vanel +1
We study experimentally the slow growth of a single crack in polycarbonate films submitted to uniaxial and constant imposed stress. The specificity of fracture in polycarbonate fil…
Subcritical crack growth in fibrous materials
Stéphane Santucci, Pierre-Philippe Cortet, Stéphanie Deschanel +2
We present experiments on the slow growth of a single crack in a fax paper sheet submitted to a constant force . We find that statistically averaged crack growth curves can be d…
Gaussian Statistics of Fracture Surfaces
Stéphane Santucci, Joachim Mathiesen, Knut Jørgen Måløy +6
We analyse the statistical distribution function for the height fluctuations of brittle fracture surfaces using extensive experimental data sampled on widely different materials an…
Local waiting time fluctuations along a randomly pinned crack front
Knut Jørgen Måløy, Stéphane Santucci, Jean Schmittbuhl +1
The propagation of an interfacial crack along a heterogeneous weak plane of a transparent Plexiglas block is followed using a high resolution fast camera. We show that the fracture…
