Forensic Science International（2021）
Abstract
•Butterfly fractures initiated in tension regardless of wedge orientation.•Incomplete cracks branched from the tensile initiation site.•Small, irregularly shaped fragments contained useful fractography features.•High-speed videos confirmed interpretations made using fractography.•Fractography can be used to interpret complex fracture propagation sequences.
