The orthorhombic boride crystal family XYB$_{14}$, where X and Y are metal atoms, plays a critical role in a unique class of superhard compounds, yet there have been no studies aimed at understanding the origin of the mechanical strength of this compound. We present here the results from a comprehensive investigation into the fracture strength of the archetypal AlLiB$_{14}$ crystal. First-principles, textit{ab initio}, methods are used to determine the ideal brittle cleavage strength for several high-symmetry orientations. The elastic tensor and the orientation-dependent Youngs modulus are calculated. From these results the lower bound fracture strength of AlLiB$_{14}$ is predicted to be between 29 and 31 GPa, which is near the measured hardness reported in the literature. These results indicate that the intrinsic strength of AlLiB$_{14}$ is limited by the interatomic B--B bonds that span between the B layers.

Quasi-brittle behavior where macroscopic failure is preceded by stable damaging and intensive cracking activity is a desired feature of materials because it makes fracture predictable. Based on a fiber bundle model with global load sharing we show th
at blending strength and stiffness disorder of material elements leads to the stabilization of fracture, i.e. samples which are brittle when one source of disorder is present, become quasi-brittle as a consequence of blending. We derive a condition of quasi-brittle behavior in terms of the joint distribution of the two sources of disorder. Breaking bursts have a power law size distribution of exponent 5/2 without any crossover to a lower exponent when the amount of disorder is gradually decreased. The results have practical relevance for the design of materials to increase the safety of constructions.
We use classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the mechanical properties of pre-cracked, nano-porous single layer MoS2 (SLMoS2) and the effect of interactions between cracks and pores. We found that the failure of pre-cracked and
nano-porous SLMoS2 is dominated by brittle type fracture. Bonds in armchair direction show a stronger resistance to crack propagation compared to the zigzag direction. We compared the brittle failure of Griffith prediction with the MD fracture strength and toughness and found substantial differences that limit the applicability of Griffith criterion for SLMoS2 in case of nano-cracks and pores. Next, we demonstrate that the mechanical properties of pre-cracked SLMoS2 can be enhanced via symmetrically placed pores and auxiliary cracks around a central crack and position of such arrangements can be optimized for maximum enhancement of strengths. Such a study would help towards strain engineering based advanced designing of SLMoS2 and other similar Transition Metal Dichalcogenides.
Soft or weakly-consolidated sand refers to porous materials composed of particles (or grains) weakly held together to form a solid but that can be easily broken when subjected to stress. These materials do not behave as conventional brittle, linear e
lastic materials and the transition between these two regimes cannot usually be described using poro-elastic models. Furthermore, conventional geotechnical sampling techniques often result in the destruction of the cementation and recovery of sufficient intact core is, therefore, difficult. This paper studies a numerical model that allows us to introduce weak consolidation in granular packs. The model, based on the LIGGGHTS open source project, simply adds an attractive contribution to particles in contact. This simple model allow us to reproduce key elements of the behaviour of the stress observed in compacted sands and clay, as well as in poorly consolidated sandstones. The paper finishes by inspecting the effect of different consolidation levels in fluid-driven fracture behaviour. Numerical results are compared against experimental results on bio-cemented sandstones.
A new quantum action-based theory, Dynamic Quantized Fracture Mechanics (DQFM), is presented that modifies continuum-based dynamic fracture mechanics. The crack propagation is assumed as quantized in both space and time. The static limit case corresp
onds to Quantized Fracture Mechanics (QFM), that we have recently developed to predict the strength of nanostructures.
We extend the model-free data-driven paradigm for rate-independent fracture mechanics proposed in Carrara et al. (2020), Data-driven Fracture Mechanics, Comp. Meth. App. Mech. Eng., 372 to rate-dependent fracture and sub-critical fatigue. The problem
is formulated by combining the balance governing equations stemming from variational principles with a set of data points that encodes the fracture constitutive behavior of the material. The solution is found as the data point that best satisfies the meta-stability condition as given by the variational procedure and following a distance minimization approach based on closest-point-projection. The approach is tested on different setups adopting different types of rate-dependent fracture and fatigue models affected or not by white noise.
