Clearly, we observe a case of deflection to an extent here, with the crack first growing in the direction parallel to the load, and then penetrating through the material in an interesting zig-zag pattern. This pattern has its own showcase of deflection in itself, as the zig-zag pattern took a longer time compared to the expected straight across penetration. This may be due to the Cubic-Subdivision pattern, a widely revered pattern due to its exceptional strength in multiple directions, effectively not many anisotropic properties present.
