Kp. Zol'Nikov et al., Effect of grain boundary on the character of pulse-train-induced cleavage fracture in copper crystal, TECH PHYS L, 26(4), 2000, pp. 323-325
The process of pulse-train-induced cleavage fracture in a copper crystal wi
th grain boundary was studied by methods of computer simulation. It is demo
nstrated that trains of isolated compression pulses induced in the material
favor the tendency to fracture propagation along the grain boundary. (C) 2
