Anisotropic fracture dynamics due to local lattice distortions
A brittle material under loading fails by the nucleation and propagation of a sharp crack. In monatomic crystals, such as silicon, the lattice geometries front to the crack-tip changes the way of propagation even with the same cleavage surface. In general, however, crystals have multiple kinds of at...
