Oscillatory instability in two-dimensional dynamic fracture.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The stability of a rapid dynamic crack in a two-dimensional infinite strip is studied in the framework of linear elastic fracture mechanics supplemented with a modified principle of local symmetry. It is predicted that a single crack becomes unstable by a finite wavelength oscillatory mode at a velocity vc, 0.8cR<vc<0.85cR, where cR is the Rayleigh wave speed. The relevance of this theoretical calculation to the oscillatory instability reported in the companion experimental Letter is discussed.

Dynamic Fracture Analysis Using an Uncoupled Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian Finite Element Formulation
This paper deals with the implementation of an efficient Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the three dimensional finite element modeling of mode I self-similar dynamic fracture process. Contrary to the remeshing technique, the presented algorithm can continuously advance the crack with the one mesh topology. The uncoupled approach is employed to treat the equations. So, each t...
متن کاملThe effect of flow parameters on mixing degree of a three dimensional rhombus micromixer with obstacles in the middle of the mixing channel using oscillatory inlet velocities
The previous studies of authors on passive micromixers indicated that the micromixers dividing the flow to several layers, such as rhombus micromixers and micromixers with obstacles in the middle of the mixing channel, have higher mixing degree than other types. Also, using of oscillatory inlet velocities is an active method to enhance the mixing efficiency of micromixers. Therefore, in this st...
متن کاملOscillations in rapid fracture.
Experiments of pure tensile fracture in thin brittle gels reveal a new dynamic oscillatory instability whose onset occurs at a critical velocity, VC=0.87CS, where CS is the shear wave speed. Until VC, crack dynamics are well described by linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). These extreme speeds are obtained by suppression of the microbranching instability, which occurs when sample thicknes...
متن کاملMicrobranching instability and the dynamic fracture of brittle materials.
We describe experiments on the dynamic fracture of the brittle plastic, PMMA. The results suggest a view of the fracture process that is based on the existence and subsequent evolution of an instability, which causes a single crack to become unstable to frustrated microscopic branching events. We demonstrate that a number of long-standing questions in the dynamic fracture of amorphous, brittle ...
متن کاملOscillatory instability of crack propagations in quasistatic fracture.
Crack propagations in quasi-static fracture are studied theoretically. The Griffith theory is applied to discuss a crack extension condition and motion of crack tips in straight propagations. Stability of the straight propagations is investigated based on the simple assumption that a curvature near the crack tip is determined by a singular shear stress. It is shown that straight propagations be...
