Toughness and damage tolerance of fractal hierarchical metamaterials
Ashivni Shekhawat
We present a theory for the toughness, damage tolerance, and tensile strength of a class of hierarchical, fractal, metamaterials. We show that the even though the absolute toughnes…

Improving extreme value statistics
Ashivni Shekhawat
The rate of uniform convergence in extreme value statistics is non-universal and can be arbitrarily slow. Further, the relative error can be unbounded in the tail of the approximat…

Fracture strength: Stress concentration, extreme value statistics and the fate of the Weibull distribution
Zsolt Bertalan, Ashivni Shekhawat, James P. Sethna +1
The fracture strength distribution of materials is often described in terms of the Weibull law which can be derived by using extreme value statistics if elastic interactions are ig…
