摘要
Dynamic fracture in viscoelastic solids has been studied computationally using a mesoscale Finite Element model. In order to study crack propagation in homogeneous or amorphous materials the locations of nodes are selected regularly or randomly, respectively. In both cases results show oscillations in crack velocity above a critical velocity of about one-half the Raleigh velocity. The complicated topology of cracks obeys the scaling law found in experimental works. Dissipative systems are found to bear a larger maximum strain than purely elastic systems before macroscopic fracture.
