Plasticity-induced structural anisotropy of silica glass

Cindy Linn Rountree, Damien Vandembroucq, Mehdi Talamali +2

Amorphous silica density at ambient pressure is known to depend on thermal history (through the quenching rate) but also, at room temperature, on the maximum pressure applied in th…

Nanoscale damage during fracture in silica glass

Daniel Bonamy, Silke Prades, Cindy Rountree +5

We report here atomic force microscopy experiments designed to uncover the nature of failure mechanisms occuring within the process zone at the tip of a crack propagating into a si…

Scaling exponents for fracture surfaces in homogenous glass and glassy ceramics

Daniel Bonamy, Laurent Ponson, Silke Prades +2

We investigate the scaling properties of post-mortem fracture surfaces in silica glass and glassy ceramics. In both cases, the 2D height-height correlation function is found to obe…

Two-dimensional scaling properties of experimental fracture surfaces

Laurent Ponson, Daniel Bonamy, Elisabeth Bouchaud

The morphology of fracture surfaces encodes the various complex damage and fracture processes occurring at the microstructure scale that have lead to the failure of a given heterog…

Fracture of glassy materials as detected by real-time Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) experiments

F. Celarie, S. Prades, D. Bonamy +5

We have studied the low speed fracture regime for different glassy materials with variable but controlled length scales of heterogeneity in a carefully mastered surrounding atmosph…

Glass breaks like metals, but at the nanometer scale

F. Celarie, S. Prades, D. Bonamy +4

We report in situ Atomic Force Microscopy experiments which reveal the presence of nanoscale damage cavities ahead of a stress-corrosion crack tip in glass. Their presence might ex…
