Why do cracks branch? A peridynamic investigation of dynamic brittle fracture (2015, background): “A discussion on the meaning, selection, and use of the peridynamic horizon and its relation to crack branching in brittle materials has appeared in Bobaru and Hu (2012).”
Peridynamics simulations of geomaterial fragmentation by impulse loads (2015, methodology): “The bond-based peridynamics model has been used to predict damage and fracture processes in brittle materials [10], reinforced concrete materials [11], composite laminate structures [12], and brazed joints [13].”
A two‐dimensional ordinary, state‐based peridynamic model for linearly elastic solids (2014, background): “For dynamic problems such as simulations of cracks, wave dispersion is strongly dependent on the horizon size [18].”
A peridynamic material model for the analysis of dynamic crack propagation in orthotropic media (2014, background): “Some discussions on selection of a horizon for these problems can be found in (Bobaru and Hu 2012).”
