Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur - 208016, India (Dated: July 31, 2008) We study the breakdown of a random fiber bundle model (RFBM) with n-discontinuities in the threshold distribution using the global load sharing scheme. In other words, n+ 1 different classes of fibers identified on the basis of their threshold strengths are mixed such that the strengths of the fibers in the i ? th class are uniformly distributed between the values σ2i?2 and σ2i?1 where 1 ≤ i ≤ n+ 1. Moreover, there is a gap in the threshold distribution between i? th and i+ 1? th class. We show that although the critical stress depends on the parameter values of the system, the critical exponents are identical to that obtained in the recursive dynamics of a RFBM with a uniform distribution and global load sharing. The avalanche size distribution (ASD), on the other hand, shows a non-universal, non-power law behavior for smaller values of avalanche sizes which becomes prominent only when a critical distribution is approached. We establish that the behavior of the avalanche size distribution for an arbitrary n is qualitatively similar to a RFBM with a single discontinuity in the threshold distribution (n = 1), especially when the density and the range of threshold values of fibers belonging to strongest (n+ 1)-th class is kept identical in all the cases. - PACS numbers: 46.50. +a, 62.20.Mk, 64.60.Ht, 81.05.Ni I. INTRODUCTION What causes fracture of materials in nature? Are there any precursor that signals the imminence of a com- plete breakdown so that we can avoid them taking place? These are few of the many questions that physicists and engineers are looking at now a days to explore the frac- ture dynamics of heterogeneous materials[1, 2]. A prior knowledge of fail
