Dynamic fracture and fragmentation processes exhibit several striking characteristic phenomena. Numerical simulations, using any of a variety of methods, have had only limited success in replicating any of these characteristic phenomena. A fundamental impediment for numerical simulations of fracture that are based on traditional solid mechanics theory is that the governing equations are expressed as partial differential equations and the derivatives they entail do not exist at discontinuities. To remedy this inherent limitation, Silling proposed peridynamics as an enhancement of traditional solid mechanics theory. In the peridynamic continuum theory, momentum and energy conservation are expressed as integral equations that apply, without modification, to all types of material response; no auxiliary laws or rules are needed to treat crack initiation or growth. Hallmarks of the theory are nonlocal force interactions between material points; direct use of force and displacement in preference to stress and strain; representation of actual displacement rather than a local gradient approximation; and a numerical implementation that yields a mesh-free method. We show that the resulting simulation capability is able to accurately represent a wide variety of characteristic dynamic fracture phenomena, making peridynamics exceptional among numerical solid mechanics methods. Moreover, the method is predictive in that these phenomena are not “programmed” into the simulations in any way, but emerge from the combination of system geometry, initial and boundary conditions, and the chosen material force density constitutive model.
