Revisit on the fractal dimension in damage and fracture

The catastrophic failure of materials is a complicated process, involving the nucleation, growth and coalescence of numerous cracks with a wide range of time and length scales. In this paper, the variation of fractal dimension and entropy during a damage evolution process, especially in the vicinity...
