We study the nucleation and development of crack patterns in thin composite fibers under tension in this work. A fiber comprises an elastic core and an outer layer of a weaker brittle material. In recent tensile experiments on such composites, multiple cracks were observed to develop simultaneously on the outer layer. We propose here a simple one-dimensional model to predict such phenomena using the inverse-deformation approach to fracture. We idealize the problem as two axially loaded rods coupled by a linear interfacial condition. The latter can be regarded as an adhesive that resists slip between the two materials. One rod is modeled as a brittle material, and the other a linearly elastic material, both undergoing finite deformations.
