How do materials fracture? The molecular dynamics methods used to model this important problem parallelize well, allowing bigger and more realistic computational experiments. Simulations of how materials crack at the atomic level are yielding surprising results that sometimes contradict existing theory, but that may explain recent physical experiments.
