A complete phase-field fracture model for brittle materials subjected to thermal shocks
Bo Zeng, John E. Dolbow
Brittle materials subjected to thermal shocks experience strong temperature gradients that in turn give rise to mechanical stresses that can be large enough to induce fracture. Thi…

Nine circles of elastic brittle fracture: A series of challenge problems to assess fracture models
Farhad Kamarei, Bo Zheng, John E. Dolbow +1
Since the turn of the millennium, capitalizing on modern advances in mathematics and computation, a slew of computational models have been proposed in the literature with the objec…
