Modelling of Granular Fracture in Polycrystalline Materials Using Ordinary State-Based Peridynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
An ordinary state-based peridynamic formulation is developed to analyse cubic polycrystalline materials for the first time in the literature. This new approach has the advantage that no constraint condition is imposed on material constants as opposed to bond-based peridynamic theory. The formulation is validated by first considering static analyses and comparing the displacement fields obtained from the finite element method and ordinary state-based peridynamics. Then, dynamic analysis is performed to investigate the effect of grain boundary strength, crystal size, and discretization size on fracture behaviour and fracture morphology.

Modelling of Crack Growth Using a New Fracture Criteria Based Peridynamics
Peridynamics (PD) is a nonlocal continuum theory based on integro-differential equations without spatial derivatives. The elongation fracture criterion is implicitly incorporated in the PD theory, and fracture is a natural outcome of the simulation. On the other hand, a new fracture criterion based on the crack opening displacement combined with peridynamic (PD-COD) is proposed. When the relati...
متن کاملA non-ordinary peridynamics implementation for anisotropic materials
Peridynamics (PD) represents a new approach for modelling fracture mechanics, where a continuum domain is modelled through particles connected via physical bonds. This formulation allows us to model crack initiation, propagation, branching and coalescence without special assumptions. Up to date, anisotropic materials were modelled in the PD framework as different isotropic materials (for instan...
متن کاملMesoscale Fracture Analysis of Multiphase Cementitious Composites Using Peridynamics
Concrete is a complex heterogeneous material, and thus, it is important to develop numerical modeling methods to enhance the prediction accuracy of the fracture mechanism. In this study, a two-dimensional mesoscale model is developed using a non-ordinary state-based peridynamic (NOSBPD) method. Fracture in a concrete cube specimen subjected to pure tension is studied. The presence of heterogene...
متن کاملA Review of Peridynamics and its Applications; Part1: The Models based on Peridynamics
Peridynamics is a nonlocal version of the continuum mechanics, in which partial differential equations are replaced by integro-differential ones. Due to not using spatial derivatives of the field variables, it can be applied to problems with discontinuities. In the primary studies, peridynamics has been used to simulate crack propagation in brittle materials. With proving the capabilities of pe...
متن کاملA computational framework for microstructural modelling of polycrystalline materials with damage and failure
In the present thesis, a computational framework for the analysis of the deformation and damage phenomena occurring at the micro-scale of polycrystalline materials is presented. Micro-mechanics studies are commonly performed using the Finite Element Method (FEM) for its versatility and robustness. However, finite element formulations usually lead to an extremely high number of degrees of freedo...
