The single edge notch fracture test for viscoelastic elastomers
Farhad Kamarei, Fabio Sozio, Oscar Lopez-Pamies
Making use of the Griffith criticality condition recently introduced by Shrimali and Lopez-Pamies (Extreme Mechanics Letters 58: 101944, 2023), this work presents a comprehensive a…
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…
Nucleation and propagation of fracture in viscoelastic elastomers: A complete phase-field theory
Farhad Kamarei, Evan Breedlove, Oscar Lopez-Pamies
This paper presents a macroscopic theory, alongside its numerical implementation, aimed at describing, explaining, and predicting the nucleation and propagation of fracture in visc…
Validating Griffith fracture propagation in the phase-field approach to fracture: The case of Mode III by means of the trousers test
F. Kamarei, E. Breedlove, O. Lopez-Pamies
At present, there is an abundance of results showing that the phase-field approach to fracture in elastic brittle materials -- when properly accounting for material strength -- des…
Nucleation of fracture: The first-octant evidence against classical variational phase-field models
Farhad Kamarei, John E. Dolbow, Oscar Lopez-Pamies
As a companion work to [1], this Note presents a series of simple formulae and explicit results that illustrate and highlight why classical variational phase-field models cannot po…
The poker-chip experiments of synthetic elastomers
Farhad Kamarei, Aditya Kumar, Oscar Lopez-Pamies
In a recent study, Kumar and Lopez-Pamies (J. Mech. Phys. Solids 150: 104359, 2021) have provided a complete quantitative explanation of the famed poker-chip experiments of Gent an…
