Hydrogen-induced fracture of steel is characterized by the formation o
f internal voids caused by hydrogen precipitation at an inclusion-matr
ix interface, followed by the formation of microcrack array under the
superposed action of internal hydrogen pressure and external forces. T
he propagation of the hydrogen-induced fracture is considerably random
and the fracture develops by stepwise linking of the microcracks. We
present a new fracture model describing the patterns of crack growth b
y hydrogen embrittlement to find a generic feature of delayed fracture
. Crack growth in solid with many initial defects is studied by Monte
Carlo simulation on a square lattice. By analyzing time-dependent clus
ter size distribution of crack and its dynamic scaling, it is found th
at the crack growth process has a fractal structure. ''Percolation of
cracks'' which corresponds to macroscopic breakdown of materials is al
so investigated.
