The estimation of rupture in fibrous soft biological tissues has emerged as a central task in medical monitoring and risk assessment of diseases such as aortic dissection and aneurysms. In an attempt to address the rupture phenomenon in fibrous soft tissues, a computational framework featuring an anisotropic crack phase-field approach is reviewed which involves a structure tensor aligning the crack along the collagen fibers, and the crack driving source term informed by several anisotropic failure criteria proposed so far. Subsequently, we focus on failure surfaces determined by the failure criteria. Finally, we provide a brief summary and discussion in the numerical rupture modeling of fibrous soft tissues.
