Extreme cavity expansion in soft solids: Damage without fracture

Extreme cavity expansion in soft solids: Damage without fracture

Cavitation is a common damage mechanism in soft solids. Here, we study this using a phase separation technique in stretched, elastic solids to controllably nucleate and grow small cavities by several orders of magnitude. The ability to make stable cavities of different sizes, as well as the huge ran...
