Abstract

Within the theory of Peridynamics standard continuum mechanical material models can be applied using the so-called correspondence formulation. However, the correspondence formulation is susceptible to instabilities in the resulting displacement field, which makes the method inapplicable for simulations at large strains. Hence, the application of a suitable numerical approach to eliminate this drawback is required. Besides a general introduction into Peridynamics, different possibilities to prevent the appearing of the arising instabilities are presented in this chapter. One such approach comes without the necessity of additional stabilisation parameters and is based on the subdivision of the non-local interaction region of interest. Further, it is denoted as the enhanced peridynamic correspondence formulation. In the numerical examples it is demonstrated that for this formulation the instabilities in the displacement field disappear for three-dimensional examples at large strains. In addition, previously unknown limitations of the enhanced peridynamic correspondence formulation are shown within the numerical examples. These are slight, non-physical, deviations in the deformation field and in case of torsion dominated problems a non-physical representation of the stress field.
