Can Local Stress Enhancement Induce Stability in Fracture Processes? Part II: The Shielding Effect

We use the local load sharing fiber bundle model to demonstrate a shielding effect where strong fibers protect weaker ones. This effect exists due to the local stress enhancement around broken fibers in the local load sharing model, and it is therefore not present in the equal load sharing model. Th...
