Case studies in numerical simulation of crack trajectories in brittle materials

Statistical Fracture Mechanics, formalism of few natural ideas is applied to simulation of crack trajectories in brittle material. The “diffusion approximation” of the crack diffusion model represents crack trajectories as a one-dimensional Wiener process with advantage of well-developed mathematic...
