This study presents a comprehensive exploration of Peridynamic (PD) theory, with a specific
focus on its theoretical foundations and practical implementations, including various PD …

This study introduces a bond-based peridynamic (BB-PD) approach for analyzing concrete
structures under cyclic loading, with the aim of comprehensively addressing crack …

A series of triaxial compression experiments and analyses were conducted out by using the
three-dimensional bond-based peridynamics (BB-PD) model to investigate the mechanical …

Petaling failure is one of the most prevalent modes for tubular members exposed to high-
velocity impacts. Capturing progressive damage in real-time is crucial for elucidating the …

Engineering cement-based composite materials (ECC) are widely used for strengthening
concrete structures and resisting impact loads. However, the impact failure process of …

Peridynamics is a new approach to continuum mechanics. There has been rapid progress in
peridynamics research, especially in recent years. In this review study, recent advances in …

Concrete cracking and failure under external loads are common in infrastructure, particularly
under impact conditions where the variability of loads and the complexity of the cracking …

To study the mechanism of mixed-mode I-II dynamic fracture of concrete, a crack
propagation analysis method that employs the initial fracture toughness as a parameter of …

A fractional viscoelastic kernel function is proposed to describe the modulus evolution
during the creep and stress relaxation behavior of quasi-brittle materials. A unified fractional …

Interconnected cracks are prefabricated on plexiglass plates (polymethyl methacrylate,
PMMA) to study the effect of crack length on the initiation and propagation of interconnected …
