A three-dimensional computational model for intergranular cracking

A three-dimensional mechanical model for intergranular crack propagation is presented. The model follows the spirit of existing percolation-like models but offers the inclusion of mechanical effects. This is necessary in order to account more accurately for the crack driving force and the effect of...
