Damage and Failure Process of Concrete Structure under Uniaxial Compression Based on Peridynamics Modeling

Peridynamics is a nonlocal formulation of continuum mechanics, which uses integral formulation rather than the spatial partial differential equations. The peridynamic approach avoids using any spatial derivatives, which arise naturally in the classical local theory. It has shown effectiveness and ad...
