Corrosion Damage and Corrosion-Assisted Fracture: Peridynamic Modelling and Computations covers cutting-edge developments in predicting corrosion damage and its influence on reducing material ductility, which can lead to crack nucleation, propagation, and final failure. The computational simulations included in the book match detailed experimental observations of corrosion damage and cracking induced by corrosion, and are enabled by a state-of-the-art peridynamic framework for modeling complex phenomena involving material dissolution, fracture, and damage in a unified way.  The book provides a modeling framework that can be validated against experiments and delivers predictive results for corrosion-induced damage and fracture.

A companion website features simulation movies of the modeling techniques and material corrosion, and also features code with which readers can directly test or even expand on the methods covered in the book.

Florin Bobaru is a Professor and the Hegenrader Distinguished Scholar in Mechanical and Materials Engineering at University of Nebraska-Lincoln. He was one of the first contributors to peridymamic modeling of material failure. He has published extensively on peridynamic modeling of dynamic brittle fracture, fracture in composites, corrosion damage, and thermomechanical fracture, including as the main editor of a book on peridynamic modeling. Ziguang Chen Professor, Department of Mechanics, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China. Ziguang Chen is a Professor in the Department of Mechanics at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China. Dr. Chen's joint paper with Dr. Bobaru published in Journal of Mechanics and Solids in 2015 is the original work on the new peridynamic models for corrosion damage and has already been cited over 60 times. Since 2014 he has been working on peridynamic models in thermo-mechanics, modeling of corrosion damage, and fracture in composites and porous materials. Siavash Jafarzadeh Research Assistant, Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Lincoln, NE, USA.
