Here we show by large-scale atomistic simulations that the elastic behaviour observed at large strains—hyperelasticity—can play a governing role in the dynamics of fracture, ...

Hyperelasticity dominates fracture energy transport when the size of the hyperelastic zone approaches the energy characteristic length. Under normal experimental conditions, ...

Major causes of hyperelasticity. Hyperelasticity is often found in people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). EDS is a collective group of genetic disorders that alter the connective tissues that ...
