Weakly Nonlinear Theory of Dynamic Fracture
Eran Bouchbinder, Ariel Livne, Jay Fineberg
The common approach to crack dynamics, linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM), assumes infinitesimal strains and predicts a strain divergence at a crack tip. We extend…

The Breakdown of Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics near the Tip of a Rapid Crack
Ariel Livne, Eran Bouchbinder, Jay Fineberg
We present high resolution measurements of the displacement and strain fields near the tip of a dynamic (Mode I) crack. The experiments are performed on polyacrylamide gels, brittl…
