Journal ArticleDOI
Reformulation of Elasticity Theory for Discontinuities and Long-Range Forces
TL;DR: In this paper, a peridynamic formulation for the basic equations of continuum mechanics is proposed, and the propagation of linear stress waves in the new theory is discussed, and wave dispersion relations are derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
A meshfree method based on the peridynamic model of solid mechanics
TL;DR: In this article, a numerical method for solving dynamic problems within the peridynamic theory is described, and the properties of the method for modeling brittle dynamic crack growth are discussed, as well as its accuracy and numerical stability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peridynamic States and Constitutive Modeling
TL;DR: In this article, a generalization of the original peridynamic framework for solid mechanics is proposed, which allows the response of a material at a point to depend collectively on the deformation of all bonds connected to the point.
Book ChapterDOI
Peridynamic Theory of Solid Mechanics
TL;DR: 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 act across zero distance as discussed by the authors, however, the classical theory has been demonstrated to provide a good approximation to the response of real materials down to small length scales, particularly in single crystals, provided these assumptions are met.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peridynamics via finite element analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe how the peridynamic model can also be implemented in a conventional finite element analysis (FEA) code using truss elements, and demonstrate the utility and robustness of the method for problems involving fracture, damage and penetration.
