Description
This dataset accompanies the research paper "The single edge notch fracture test for viscoelastic elastomers" by Kamarei, Sozio, and Lopez-Pamies, published in the Journal of Theoretical, Computational and Applied Mechanics (2026). Making use of the Griffith criticality condition introduced by Shrimali and Lopez-Pamies (Extreme Mechanics Letters 58: 101944, 2023), the paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the single edge notch fracture test for viscoelastic elastomers — combining a parametric study with direct comparisons against experiments — to reveal how non-Gaussian elasticity, nonlinear viscosity, and intrinsic fracture energy interact to govern fracture nucleation from a pre-existing crack. The dataset contains figure data, numerical results, and supporting materials for reproducing the findings of the paper.
