Abstract

A dynamical lattice model is presented to simulate fracture of brittle materials caused by quenching. With this model, relations between fracture patterns and temperature difference in quenching are investigated. It is found that as the temperature difference increases, a tree-like (a few branched) pattern suddenly changes into a net-like (many branched) pattern.
