ABSTRACT
How materials fracture is one of the most fundamental problems in materials science and engineering. Typically, the stress fields near the crack tip are highly nonlinear, and stress-field decay far from the tip is very slow, making fracture a difficult problem. Progress in large-scale scientific computing during the last decade has helped researchers successfully study dynamic fracture.
