Peridynamic Theory for Modeling Three-Dimensional Damage Growth in Metallic and Composite Structures
A recently introduced nonlocal peridynamic theory removes the obstacles present in classical continuum mechanics that limit the prediction of crack initiation and growth in materials. It is also applicable at different length scales. This study presents an alternative approach for the derivation of...
