Peridynamic equation's spatial discretization methods proposed for linear microelastic material with infinite length.

Abstract

Abstract Different spatial discretisation methods for solving the peridynamic equation of motion are suggested. The methods proposed are tested for a linear microelastic material of infinite length in one spatial dimension. Moreover, the conservation of energy is studied for the continuous as well as discretised problem.
