Peridynamics (PD) is a novel continuum mechanics theory established by Stewart Silling in
2000. The roots of PD can be traced back to the early works of Gabrio Piola according to …

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 …

We present a new theoretical and numerical framework for modelling mechanically-assisted
corrosion in elastic–plastic solids. Both pitting and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) can be …

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 …

Corrosion, more specifically, pitting corrosion happening extremely in marine environments,
leads to lifespan of materials drastically decreasing in service, which causes enormous …

We introduce a coupled mechano-chemical peridynamic model to describe stress corrosion
cracking. In this model, two mechanisms, stress-dependent anodic dissolution and diffuse …

Abstract 316L stainless steel (316L SS) is a flagship material for structural applications in
corrosive environments, having been extensively studied for decades for its favorable …

This manuscript presents the formulation and implementation of a phase field model for
simulating the activation-and diffusion-controlled pitting corrosion phenomena in metallic …

Corrosion of metals induces enormous loss of material performance and increase of cost,
which has been a common and intractable issue that needs to be addressed urgently …

In recent years, mechanical characteristics including vibration, bending, buckling and
postbuckling, stability and instability, etc. of small-scaled structures (such as …
