Flaw-tolerance of nonlocal discrete systems and interpretation according to network theory
Discrete systems are modeled as a network of nodes (particles, molecules, or atoms) linked by nonlinear springs to simulate the action of van der Waals forces. Such systems are nonlocal if links connecting non-adjacent nodes are introduced. For their topological characterization, a nonlocality inde...
