This lecture covers a review of exercises related to fracture of materials, including topics such as rate-dependent fracture in rubbers, ductile-brittle transition temperatures, and craze-mediated fracture in polymers. The exercises involve qualitative explanations, calculations of fracture energies, and predictions of material behavior under different conditions.
