Notes: Fracture in heterogeous solids can be simulated with finite elements. We compare simulations of mechanical breakdown using meshes based on two types of geometrical elements: quadrilaterals and hexagons. The different co-ordination of the meshes leads to important differences in the load-carrying geometry close to failure. Hexagonal elements give a better representation of failure in brittle solids, whereas quadrilateral elements have a resemblance to fibrous solids.
