Branching mechanism of intergranular crack propagation in three dimensions

Itakura, Mitsuhiro ; Kaburaki, Hideo; Arakawa, Chuichi

The process of slow intergranular crack propagation was investigated by the finite element method model and it was found that branching is induced by partial arresting of a crack front owing to the geometrical randomness of grain boundaries. A possible scenario for the branching instability of crack propagation in a disordered continuous medium is also discussed.
