Parallel simulation of reinforced concrete sructures using peridynamics
The failure of concrete structures involves many complex mechanisms. Traditional theoretical models are limited to specific problems and are not applicable to many real-life problems. Consequently, design specifications mostly rely on empirical equations derived from laboratory tests at the …

Lattice-based peridynamic modeling of linear elastic solids
Concrete is a complex material often used in civil engineering structures. This quasi-brittle material, when reinforced with steel, develops cohesive cracks under loading even though it has adequate strength to carry service loads. Concrete often cracks even before the application of load, due to …
