Course Description
|
Fracture prediction is an ongoing challenge in computational science and
engineering. Peridynamics is a nonlocal reformulation of classical continuum
mechanics, suitable for fracture modeling and simulation, that removes spatial
differentiability assumptions on displacement fields. This course will provide an
overview of peridynamics, including its mathematical, computational, and modeling
aspects. The course will also review advanced research topics and software in
peridynamics, and it will include a hands-on tutorial on 3D simulation of solid
mechanics problems.
