Roughness of tensile crack fronts in heterogenous materi - als
– The dynamics of planar crack fronts in heterogeneous media is studied using a recently proposed stochastic equation of motion that takes into account nonlinear effects. The analysis is carried for a moving front in the quasi-static regime using the Self Consistent Expansion. A continuous dynamical phase transition between a flat phase and a dynamically rough phase, with a roughness exponent ζ...
متن کاملRoughness of moving elastic lines: crack and wetting fronts.
We investigate propagating fronts in disordered media that belong to the universality class of wetting contact lines and planar tensile crack fronts. We derive from first principles their nonlinear equations of motion, using the generalized Griffith criterion for crack fronts and three standard mobility laws for contact lines. Then we study their roughness using the self-consistent expansion. W...
متن کاملRoughness of interfacial crack fronts: stress-weighted percolation in the damage zone.
We study numerically the roughness exponent zeta of an in-plane fracture front slowly propagating along a heterogeneous interface embedded in an elastic body, using a model based on the evolution of a process zone rather than a fracture line. We find zeta=0.60+/-0.05. For the first time, simulation results are in close agreement with experimental results. We then show that the roughness exponen...
متن کاملDiscontinuous Crack Fronts of Three-Dimensional Fractures
– The relation between fracture surface morphology and the three-dimensional structure of crack fronts is investigated through direct observation of brittle cracks in gels. A key notion in this investigation is the discontinuity of the crack front, whose advancement creates the fracture surface. We discuss the significance of our findings in the studies of general three-dimensional brittle frac...
متن کاملPropagation of Crack in Linear Elastic Materials with Considering Crack Path Correction Factor
Modeling of crack propagation by a finite element method under mixed mode conditions is of prime importance in the fracture mechanics. This article describes an application of finite element method to the analysis of mixed mode crack growth in linear elastic fracture mechanics. Crack - growth process is simulated by an incremental crack-extension analysis based on the maximum principal stress c...
