Coupling of Peridynamics and Finite Element Formulation for Multiscale Simulations

Abstract

The tasks outlined in the original proposal for two years are: (1) literature review and development of a peridynamic solver, (2) development of an automatic volume calculation routine using the partition of unity principle, (3) numerical testing for different grid widths to horizon ratios, (4) development of an approach to add another material variable in the given approach, (5) preparation of the imaging system for experimental testing, (6) development of peridynamic and finite element coupling module, (7) parallelization of the solvers, (8) verification of the coupled code, and (9) preparation of the imaging system. As for the literature review for the peridynamic formulation, intensive study has been conducted.
