Why do cracks branch? A peridynamic investigation of dynamic brittle fracture (2015, background): “As the atomic bond rupture is a dynamic process, the authors of the review article (Cox et al. 2005) state that “the dynamic fracture problem is the most fundamental in the science of fracture”.”
Studies of dynamic crack propagation and crack branching with peridynamics (2010, background): “One may ask whether quantum mechanical calculations are needed to predict the phenomenon of dynamic fracture in brittle materials (see Cox et al. 2005) which is one of the great challenges in dynamic fracture.”
A peridynamic formulation for transient heat conduction in bodies with evolving discontinuities (2012, background): “These thermoelastic effects may also be important in the ductile to brittle transition and deserves inclusion in modeling the crack tip thermodynamics [29].”
Extrinsic cohesive modelling of dynamic fracture and microbranching instability in brittle materials (2007, background): “[1] contend that CZM simulation is particularly promising in investigating certain fracture phenomena including dynamic crack branching.”
