In such a case the fracture propagation from each microcrack may have similar velocities. Even though these velocities may in themselves be somewhat limited, due to the multiplicity of fracture nuclei, the final phase of the fracture, i.e., the process of rapid crack propagation, may be of very short duration.

dynamics simulation of fracture in this material. Using this potential, cracks were barely able to propagate and the energy needed to initiate fracture was 100% larger than the measured value [4,26]. Later work suggested that, in possibly the most widely studied material in history, quantum mechanical
