Abstract
Summary The aim of this work is to efficiently implement the Park‐Paulino‐Roesler cohesive zone model with the objective of creating realistic high‐resolution simulations of material deformation, fracture, and postfracture behavior. Intrinsically, unstructured meshes can create more realistic fracture patterns in bulk material than structured meshes. Implicit methods, stable for much larger time steps, have greater potential to model both fracture and postfracture behavior without sacrificing speed of execution. Several technical contributions are presented, including (i) GPU‐accelerated implementation of the Park‐Paulino‐Roesler cohesive zone model, (ii) efficient creation of sparse matrix structure, and (iii) comparison of different unloading/reloading relations when using an implicit scheme. A potential‐based collision response scheme was implemented that allows one to model the interaction of fragmented material. Several test simulations are carried out to demonstrate the flexibility of the model and its ability to reproduce different materials under various loading conditions. Benchmarking results show that most of the computational time is spent by the third‐party solver library, meaning that other operations do not require optimization. The library is made available as open source.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
