Publication Access status: Metadata only , Continuum-kinematics-based peridynamics and phase-field approximation of non-local dynamic fractureIn this work, two non-local approaches to dynamic fracture are investigated: a novel peridynamic formulation and a variational phase-field approach. The chosen continuum-kinematics-based peridynamic model extends the current peridynamic models by introducing surface and volume-based interactions. The phase-field fracture approach optimizes the body’s potential energy and provides a reliable method for predicting fracture in finite element computations. Both methods are able to efficiently compute crack propagation even when the cracks have arbitrary or complex patterns. We discuss the relations of critical fracture parameters in the two methods and show that our novel damage model for the continuum-kinematics-based peridynamics effectively manages fracture under dynamic loading conditions. Numerical examples demonstrate a good agreement between both methods in terms of crack propagation, fracture pattern, and in part, critical loading. We also show the limitations of the methods and discuss possible reasons for deviations.Source Type:Article4 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Access status: Metadata only , Peridynamic computations for thin elastic rodsPeridynamics is a nonlocal continuum mechanics formulation well suited for simulating dynamic fracture phenomena. Various peridynamic material formulations have been developed in recent years. These models have some differences, particularly regarding the correct handling of elastic deformation. This study investigates the elastic wave propagation characteristics of bond‐based, ordinary state‐based, continuum‐kinematics‐inspired peridynamics and a local continuum consistent correspondence formulation. Specifically, it examines the behavior of longitudinal pressure waves within thin rods. While all formulations demonstrate adequate wave propagation handling, all except the correspondence formulation are sensitive to incomplete horizons. In contrast, the local continuum consistent formulation exhibits outstanding accuracy in modeling wave propagation. Moreover, the fascinating “spaghetti fracture” phenomenon, where a bent thin rod always breaks into three or more pieces, motivates additional investigations. It is shown that reproducing a different number of fragments using peridynamic simulations is possible. Although initial experiments can be replicated, the sensitivity to numerous parameters necessitates further investigations for a more comprehensive understanding and validation.Source Type:Article3
