Abstract

Static and dynamic fracture parameter analyses of functionally graded materials (FGMs) are conducted by using the ordinary state based peridynamic theory (OSPD). As a meshfree method, OSPD applies an integral equation to describe the motion of objects, avoiding the geometrical singularity in conventional fracture analysis measures. Domain integral method by introducing material gradient terms is employed in evaluating the static and dynamic stress intensity factors (SIFs). Meanwhile, peridynamic differential operator (PDDO) is also applied for the calculation of physical components derivatives. Different FGM modeling schemes are also examined in the OSPD framework. Cracked FGM structures with mode-I and mixed-mode crack scenarios are under investigation and results are validated by reference solutions. Accuracy and reliability of the proposed method will be examined and discussed.
