Fracture Roughness Scaling: a case study on planar cracks
Stéphane Santucci, Mélanie Grob, Alex Hansen +3
Using a multi-resolution technique, we analyze large in-plane fracture fronts moving slowly between two sintered Plexiglas plates. We find that the roughness of the front exhibits…
Burst statistics as a criterion for imminent failure
Srutarshi Pradhan, Alex Hansen, Per C. Hemmer
The distribution of the magnitudes of damage avalanches during a failure process typically follows a power law. When these avalanches are recorded close to the point at which the s…
Gaussian Statistics of Fracture Surfaces
Stéphane Santucci, Joachim Mathiesen, Knut Jørgen Måløy +6
We analyse the statistical distribution function for the height fluctuations of brittle fracture surfaces using extensive experimental data sampled on widely different materials an…
