Finally, when fracture forces exceeded a critical threshold, the crack no longer halted at points of instability but split into entirely separate branches that widened and penetrated deeper into ...

there are quantitative physical parameters that shape the propagation process and explain the formation of asymmetrical crack patterns. Decades of controlled experiments in material failure have shown ...
