Roughness of Crack Interfaces in Two-Dimensional Beam Lattices
  The roughness of crack interfaces is reported in quasistatic fracture, using an elastic network of beams with random breaking thresholds. For strong disorders we obtain 0.86(3) for the roughness exponent, a result which is very different from the minimum energy surface exponent, i.e., the value 2/3. A cross-over to lower values is observed as the disorder is reduced, the exponent in these cases being strongly dependent on the disorder.
