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 …

The main objective of this contribution is to develop a novel continuum-kinematics-inspired
approach for peridynamics (PD), and to revisit PD's thermodynamic foundations. We …

Cancer is an inherently multiscale process, wherein genetic lesions at the sub-nuclear level
propagate to changes in intracellular biochemistry, cell-level behaviors, and ultimately to …

Skin fulfills several vital functions, many of which are dependent on its mechanical
properties. Therefore, as mice have become an invaluable model for skin research …

In type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), elevated glucose level impairs the biochemistry of the
skin which may result in alteration of its mechanical and structural properties. The several …

Continuum-kinematics-inspired peridynamics (CPD) has been recently proposed as a novel
reformulation of peridynamics that is characterized by one-, two-and three-neighbor …

Linking individual cell behavior to changes on the cell population and ultimately tissue scale
is a key step towards connecting in vitro laboratory experiments to clinically relevant organ …

Cell death, a process which can occur both naturally and in response to insult, is both a
complex and diverse phenomenon. Under some circumstances, dying cells actively contract …

In the published studies, peridynamics has been used to simulate crack growth in brittle and
quasi-brittle materials, simulation of plastic behaviour and solution of differential equations …
