Discrete Fractal Fracture Mechanics

Submitted by arash_yavari on

This paper extends the recently developed theories of fracture
mechanics with finite growth (mainly the work of Pugno and Ruoff, 2004
on quantized fracture mechanics) to fractal cracks. One interesting
result is the prediction of crack roughening for fractal cracks.
