- A novel material model for peridynamic simulation of fracture in anisotropic media presented. The model has been implemented in a new material model (Mat_Elastic_Peri) in the world-leading crash code LS-DYNA for simulating fracture in fibre-reinforced composites (https://www.dynalook.com/conferences/15th-international-ls-dyna-conference/composites/a-peridynamic-model-for-damage-prediction-of-fiber-reinforced-composite-laminate). This allows thousands of users of LS-DYNA across the world to use this material model to analyse fracture in composite materials.
