Ordinary state-based peridynamics for geometrically nonlinear analysis of plates

This study presents a novel ordinary state-based peridynamic model for geometrically nonlinear analysis of plates. The strain energy density and equations motion plate in peridynamics are obtained based on the principle virtual displacements by using Total Lagrange formulation. numerical procedure is also provided. accuracy proposed validated considering large deformations subjected to bending transverse shear forces. To further demonstrate capabilities model, damages with single crack stretching tearing, two parallel cracks torsional loading predicted.
