Fracturing of topological Maxwell lattices

We present fracturing analysis of topological Maxwell lattices when they are stretched by applied stress. Maxwell lattices are mechanical structures containing equal numbers of degrees of freedom and constraints in the bulk and are thus on the verge of mechanical instability. Recent progress in topo...
