“…The presence of the third dimension here allows for phenomena which are not seen in two-dimensional fractures [1]. Actual crack fronts are usually not straight lines; many step lines are found on fracture surfaces found in rock [2], glass [3][4][5][6][7], ceramics [8], rubber [9], gel [10] (including edible jelly), etc. Frechette [8] has pointed out that a crack often becomes an aggregation of crack segments which become interconnected during the course of fracture propagation and thus that such a crack front does not define a continuous line.…”

The relation between fracture surface morphology and the three-dimensional structure of crack fronts is investigated through direct observation of brittle cracks in gels.A key notion in this investigation is the discontinuity of the crack front, whose advancement creates the fracture surface. We discuss the significance of our findings in the studies of general three-dimensional brittle fractures.
