Computational modeling of the initiation and propagation of complex fracture is central to the
discipline of engineering fracture mechanics. This review focuses on two promising …

Publisher Summary The classical theory of solid mechanics is based on the assumption of a
continuous distribution of mass within a body and all internal forces are contact forces that …

Peridynamic models are derived by assuming that a material point is located in the bulk.
Near a surface or boundary, material points do not have a full non-local neighborhood. This …

A generalization of the original peridynamic framework for solid mechanics is proposed. This
generalization permits the response of a material at a point to depend collectively on the …

In this paper we review the peridynamic model for brittle fracture and use it to investigate
crack branching in brittle homogeneous and isotropic materials. The peridynamic …

Using a bond-based peridynamic model, we are able to reproduce various characteristics of
dynamic brittle fracture observed in experiments; crack branching, crack-path instability …

An implicit implementation of the non-ordinary state-based peridynamics formulation for
quasi-static linearly elastic solids is presented. Emphasis is placed on assessing the …

The static solution of crack propagation problems can be an efficient way to find both the
failure load of a structure and the shape of the crack pattern. The paper introduces two new …

An extended bond-based peridynamic (PD) approach is presented for quasi-static
mechanical behavior and brittle failure analysis of materials and structures. A local artificial …
