Brittle damage prediction for corroded stiffened structures under static loading conditions by using peridynamics

This study focuses on the prediction of progressive brittle damages corroded stiffened structures by using peridynamics. First, deformations a structure subjected to uniform static pressure are investigated, and peridynamics results verified with from finite element analysis. Second, plate predicted, effects corrosion crack path as well bending strength investigated. Next, different types: localised shadow corrosions, tension predicted. The types propagation also analysed. Finally,
