Mesh: 60×30 cells over 60×30 m. Initial radial seed R=4 m, V_tip uniform.

Steps (Δt = 0.5 s)

V_tip [m/s]

0.5

tip-band cells: 20 · φ ∈ [-28.87, 3.29] m

Orange outline = active tip band (cells where φ ≥ 0 with at least one outside neighbour). Blue intensity ∝ φ > 0 (inside fracture); grey ∝ |φ| outside.
