Crack front dynamics: the interplay of singular geometry and crack instabilities
Itamar Kolvin, Gil Cohen, Jay Fineberg
When fast cracks become unstable to microscopic branching (micro-branching), fracture no longer occurs in an effective 2D medium. We follow in-plane crack front dynamics via real-t…

Crack-Like Processes Governing the Onset of Frictional Slip
Shmuel M. Rubinstein, Meni Shay, Gil Cohen +1
We perform real-time measurements of the net contact area between two blocks of like material at the onset of frictional slip. We show that the process of interface detachment, whi…

Crack Front Waves and the dynamics of a rapidly moving crack
E. Sharon, G. Cohen, J. Fineberg
Crack front waves are localized waves that propagate along the leading edge of a crack. They are generated by the interaction of a crack with a localized material inhomogeneity. We…
