Abstract: We investigate the effect of the amount of disorder on the shrinkage-induced cracking of a thin brittle layer attached to a substrate. Based on a discrete element model we study how the dynamics of cracking… read more here.

Abstract: Laser processing of thin flexible ceramics and glasses is challenging due to the incurred brittleness and unfavourable thermal properties of such materials. Optical properties are also typically unsuited to laser machining. We describe an alternative… read more here.
