Dynamic fragmentation of a brittle plate under biaxial loading: strength or toughness controlled?

The fragmentation of a brittle plate subjected to dynamic biaxial loading is investigated via numerical simulations. The aim is to extend our understanding of the dynamic processes affecting fragment size distributions. A scalable computational framework based on a hybrid cohesive zone model descrip...
